Content Manager needs bulk folder/file re-assignment tools
If a user changes departments or leaves, must be a way to re-assign files and folders - not just a choice of all owned material to one designated user (if deleting the prior user's account) or update one folder at a time. That is unsuitable for enterprise management.
Might also want to allow login from the support suggestion link before slamming a red bar demanding a sign-in other than the default Anonymous.

Enhance Custom Applications for large enterprises
Concerning "Custom Applications" (Admin Console-->Enterprise Settings-->Apps-->Custom Applications), the limits enforced by Box are entirely too low for a large enterprise.
--The dashboard for Custom Applications shows "22 of 25 App User licenses used". However, I only see 10 listed on the page. When I click the arrow icon to advance to page 2, I then see two more. So I can only view 12 of the 22 apps.
--When I click the 3-dot icon to the right of one of the apps to view the menu of actions, then click one of the actions, the view re-positions to the Box…

Populate accessible_by field in get collaborations
When managing collaborators, the end user needs to see who they have sent invitations to, even if those invitations have not yet been accepted and the other user has not created a box account. The call to get collaborations on a file or folder returns accessible_by: null for pending collaboration requests, essentially hiding the details of the pending requests and making it impossible to display those details to a user in a custom app. This data is definitely available because this feature exists in the main Box.com interface, but has not been exposed to the APIs yet.

Removing files from a single page of a multi-page folder shows confusing message
After deleting all items from one page (of multiple) of a Folder’s content, the page says “There are no items in this folder.”
This is not accurate since there are other pages of content within the folder.
Can this be changed as it can be confusing?

My customer request is to choose upload folder for each files.1 vote -
Box Note "Active Shared Link" indicator on Sidebar Box
The only way currently to know if a Box Note has an Active Shared Link is to go to the folder which contains it (in the regular Box.com UI, not the Box Notes UI), and look for the "Active Shared Link" icon on the row for the .boxnote file.
I suggest adding this same icon to the sidebar box for the note in the Box Notes UI (i.e. the box you click to load the note in the main right-hand pane).

Allow Search API call to search using wildcards
if I wanted to get the item ids of all files within a users account, I would have to run the Get Folder Items for all subfolders. If there’s a large folder tree, it would either take to long to iterate through all subfolders or I would run into an API rate limitation. It would be easiest if the Search API call can allow searching using wildcards so it would just take one API call to get a list of all item ids.

Get list of service accounts via API
Right now the only way to get a list of automation users (service accounts) is via the web UI. The application does not have UI access, and since the users can be provisioned and deleted frequently, we do not want to rely on the manual work.

Log logs reporting
There is no event logged when a user reports user activity or security logs. Could be worth to log that event along with the report criteria to be able to rack unusual reporting.

User Activity report should have logs for “New version upload”
At present, it only shows as “Edit” and if a new version with a different name was uploaded on a file by mistake, the admin will not be able to find out what happened by searching for the file name.

Add rich sharing features from webapp to Drive
Would love to be able to have more of the rich sharing functionality from the webapp available in the Box Drive UI, specifically for configuring sharing options (password, expiration etc).

Display pop-up when opening a locked file.
The lock icon is small and users can overlook this and try to edit the file without knowing that it is opened read-only.

Remove message model when changing owners
We would like message prompts that come up whenever with changing owners to be gone within the move and copy module so moving items between different folders is faster and quicker.

Filter folders by date modified when selecting "Move or Copy"
Would like to have the ability to filter folders by date modified when selecting "Move or Copy." Currently files are organized by alpha and I have to scroll through files to find the one I recently created.

Ability to white label the url from [company].box.com to box.[company].com to see white clients have blocked box
Some of our clients office networks (law firms) block box.com and because of browser cross site restrictions, they can't actually tell it's being blocked so its difficult to handle smoothly

Enhanced Share Button: Combine Invite, Get Link, and Manage Collaborators Without Using Ellipsis.
"To enable the multiple links (Invite Collaborators, Get Shared Link, Manage Collaborators) for the Share button available externally, without the ellipsis? It somehow feels redundant to have two buttons and one, without complete access to the links."

Permissions for forensic investigations
Would like a “forensic” co-admin permission. The “forensic” co-admin permission would have the permission to “login as…” any user; however, any action they take “as user” will not be reported either in access stats or in other user accessible reports.
This will allow our team to conduct forensic investigations without alerting the end user.
