Display service account login in JWT app configuration console.
Request:
It would be really helpful if the service account login were displayed on the JWT app configuration page. This would make it easy to identify the login without having to run a separate script and would lower the barrier to entry for developing unprivileged BOX JWT apps.Background:
We are making heavy use of service accounts to promote development server/automation-friendly Box apps. Our development model, outlined here (https://github.com/box-community/sample-jwt-app-primer) involves inviting low-privilege service accounts to collaborate on folders. This enables programatic access to Box files on a selective basis.A major pain point is identifying the login associated…
22 votesWe launched a feature that will show the email address of the system generated Service Account for JWT, Client Credentials Grant, and App Token apps. Find this information in the General Settings tab of your app after it has been authorized. For more check out or product update here: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500003965281.

Fix accessibility of iOS app please
Please make the iOS app more accessible.
Issue: When navigating folders, focus is on the wrong folder and there is no way to fix it. To replicate, turn on VoiceOver and drag your finger over the folders to navigate and hear them read aloud, stopping before you get to the bottom of the page. Then swipe to navigate through the folders. By the time you get to the bottom of the first page's list, the focus is lost and the only way to get it back is to kill the app and restart it. Frustrating when you have multiple pages…

Add another option for deleting trash to "Only allow Policies to delete trash"
As of now if you want to allow Retention Policies to delete trash, you have to have the trash set to delete after a set timeframe of 90, 60, 30, 10, 7 or 1 days. There should to be another option to Never auto delete EXCEPT from Retention Policies. This would safeguard end users from losing data that has been mistakenly added to the trash while giving us the option to set up retention policies to be GDPR compliant or remove sensitive data .

Getting Notifications that Don't apply to non-admins
When I logged into Box this morning, I saw the following note in the lower right-hand corner of my home screen.
Your Box account has been growing!
A growing number of users at your company have signed up for Box accounts – exceeding the number seats included in your plan by {{MLDATAOVERAGE_SEATS}}. To adjust this license overage, add seats to your plan using the link below.- We do have seats available

Idea: develop more ways to receive 2-step verification code (email address or application on smart phone )
Recently, I did not receive 2-step verification code through SMS to log in my Box account, so I had to request support from Box team to disable 2-step verification in my Box account. I know that without 2-step verification, my Box account is less secure. Please consider the following idea: (i) add another way that we can receive 2-step verification code such as the email address, or (ii) develop the application on smart phone (e.g. iOS, Android phones) that generates 2-step verification code for Box account. Thank you (PS: I just move from BoxSync to BoxDrive, so I decide to…

Allow Metadata search for files uploaded via Box API
Documents in BOX are not searchable based on Metadata when uploaded using BOX API
Document uploaded into BOX via EPHESOFT using BOX API and 3 metadata elements are attached to the document. We can see the document in the BOX and the metadata elements are present in the Custom Metadata section in the BOX.
2 votesThere are two ways to find files in Box based on the metadata. The existing Search API provides a metadata filtering option and also indexes metadata content. The Metadata Query API provides SQL-like syntax for finding files based on specific metadata condtions. See https://developer.box.com/guides/metadata/queries/create/ and https://developer.box.com/guides/search/full-text-search/

Date-based recurring workflow triggers
Relay is great for workflows that occur because a human remembered to perform an action, but we run into issues if the human in question does not remember to start their part. For example, we have a workflow that starts with a staff member downloading a vendor invoice each month, auditing it, then uploading it to our accounting team. That starts a workflow where the accounting team reviews and approves for payment, then an auditor confirms the approval, and the payment is funded. Well, it all falls apart if the person who can download that invoice doesn't respond to a…

Add the ITEM ID to the User Activity report (when activity is against a file or folder) in order to join to Files and Folder report on ID
Add the item id to the User Activity report (when activity is against a file or folder). This would allow the User Activity events to be joined to the Files and Folders report data in order to report on activity against files and folders. An example report would be a list of all activity (Downloads, Previews, etc...) for a specific Box account. Currently the User Activity report only shows the activity that a specific user has done, but not what activities have been done against the content owned by a specific user. This would allow for a wide range of…

In Webapp Search filtering - add multi-select for file type filtering or add an option to exclude folders
During searches, returns can include both Files as well as Folders, which adds to the search return clutter. Customer would like a way to filter out all folders results.
This could be done through adding multi-select to file types filter or adding a folders type exclusion.2 votesHi, this feature was delivered earlier this calendar year. Also, this filter can be set from the dropdown. See https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360053017633-New-Functionality-in-Search-Dropdown for more information.

Collaborator list size is too small
We have a few users complaining the list view is limited.
Why is this constrained to only 11 collaborators per page? The paginated UX is cumbersome16 votesI’m pleased to report that this change has now been released to all users. When looking at the Collaborators page for a given file or folder, you should now see far more than just 10 users per page, meaning less pagination clicks for you.
