  1. Event Stream notification for Admin Console changes

    We need to monitor security of our environment and want to be able to identify and flag, via the Event Stream, when any Admin Console setting is changed.

    This is available via the UI in User Reports, but is not in the Event Stream.

    This is especially important for enterprises who rely on SIEM tools like Splunk and QRadar to alert to unauthorized actions.

  3. Allow admin to disable external password

    Instead of being able to only "reset" the external passwords, we want to block the ability for users to use/access their external passwords.

    Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

    We will reconsider with additional use cases.

    Users should be able to leverage the ‘Groups’ feature for the use case of re-inviting the same group of collaborators multiple times.

  12. Improve Iconography for Bookmarks

    Currently, the Bookmarks Icon offers no distinction between a bookmark to another folder, file, or external site. Users are less likely to click on these bookmarks since the icon looks like a hyperlink instead of a folder.

    Request:
    (1) Allow user to identify if the bookmark is to another Box folder, File or External Site when creating it.
    (2) Based on the user's selection, update the icons for bookmarks to look like a folder or file icon as opposed to a generic link/bookmark icon.

  13. Apply retention policy to all existing content

    Currently with Governance, you have the ability to apply a retention policy to all new content. This policy does not touch any of the existing content within the domain. This is a large issue for an enterprise that wants to apply a single retention policy to the entire domain.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the user interface and performance before we add customizations to bulk add.

  15. New Groups UI: Make Shared Folders Page Sortable

    Currently the Edit Shared Folders page lists the folders in random order. Admins want the ability to sort by the main columns for groups that have high folder counts.

    We have made the text for long folder names wrap in the Edit Shared Folders view, so cut off folder names with a company or department prefix should no longer be a problem.

    However, we have not made the folders name column on the page sortable and don’t currently have plans to make this sortable.

  16. Ability to print Box Notes from Box on iOS

    We would like the ability to print a Box Note from their mobile device.

    We have this capability in Box Notes on desktop but not on the mobile application.

  17. FTP not available to external users for Enterprise accounts.

    Currently FTP for Box is only available to Business and Enterprise accounts for bulk migration of data. It is not available for Personal accounts (Free or Pro).

    This is problematic for Enterprise users that have external vendors, partners, customers (collaborators) that need to upload a large data set to their Enterprise account through FTP.

    Since these external collaborators are Free users, they do not have access to FTP but are still collaborating with us.

    REQUEST: Add support for FTP uploads for external collaborators that are specifically collaborating with a paying Enterprise Box account?

    This is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

  18. Saved Searches

    The ability to "save" a search and be able to go back to it at any point and the latest results would be there.
