  1. Open Shared Link Controls: Prevent Open Shared Folder Links without Disabling Company Folder Shared Links

    Right now you can't disable Open folder links without disabling Company folder links. The native Box setting for this is too restrictive (prevents sharing folders internally other than via collaboration).

  2. Add "additional_details" to events endpoint for MOVE, COPY, RENAME events

    Presently, security & events reports run from the admin console include "change details" for these events - essentially, what the prior state was before the event occurred. The events endpoint does not include these details.

    Request to add this to the additional_details of an event as it's reported through the admin events stream for the MOVE, COPY, and RENAME events.

    If RENAME, show previous name of the folder
    If MOVE/COPY, show previous parent of the folder

  3. Receive notification when transfer of content is completed

    When deleting and transferring content to another user and an error is thrown, it is not clear to the user when all the content has successfully been moved due to the error message thrown.

    We would like to know when all the content has finally completed so we can delete the user without any concerns.

  4. Add a warning when an admin tries to change their subdomain in the admin console

    It will break all existing shared links unless admins have the "spoofing" setting enabled. By association, embedded content will stop working too.

    The request is to add sufficient warning.

  5. Shared Link Lookup Tool

    Problem: Admins often need to do investigation of files stored in Box and all they have to go off of is the file/folder's shared link. Since admins can't search by shared link in the current Content Manager UI, a Shared Link Lookup tool would provide similar information.

    Key Features:
    -Provide ability to enter a shared link (standard or vanity URL)
    -Information returned after searching:
    -File/folder name
    -File/folder owner
    -File/folder location (Owner -> Folder hierarchy)
    -Status (whether the file/folder has been deleted or not)
    -Admin-level 'delete' (ability for the admin to delete the file on the spot)

  7. Enable API apps for select users

    Right now, we can disable published APIs for all users, or enable them - we'd like the ability to restrictively enable.

  8. Option to Show Full Folder Hierarchy when Added Only to Subfolder

    Right now, when collaborators are added to a folder, they are not able to see the folder hierarchy that is above the level at which they were added. This is great in many situations.

    However, there are various scenarios where customers would like users to have the 'full view' of the folder hierarchy above.

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

  10. Allow library of blank forms in Box to be used with DocuSign

    Box's implementation of the connector for DocuSign still does not accommodate a our desire to create a library of blank forms hosted in a Box folder that can be used with DocuSign.

    Under the current implementation, completed DocuSign files are redeposited back into the originating Box folder thus polluting the library with non-blank documents.

  13. Support for UNC paths in Box For Desktop

    We require UNC paths instead of local paths to be supported by Box Drive. Today - we're leveraging WebDAV, which is less than ideal.

  15. The Ability to Search for Users by Secondary Email Address

    In the Admin Console, there is currently no way to search for users by their secondary email address.

    When the Admin goes to create a new user with an email address that is already in use by an existing account, they have no way of seeing who is using the email address without checking their users' account details individually.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the current experience to manage users in the Admin Console before we add enhancements to search.

    Recent changes should have made the start-up process quicker for returning users and for new users.

  20. Option to delete the folder alongside Permanently delete content policy

    We auto-delete completed projects after 30 days and would like to automate this process with retention policies.

    Currently, a Permanently delete content policy only deletes the content within a folder, however, we need the folder itself deleted because it contains the confidential name of the project.

    This is currently not on the roadmap as we have not heard this request from many other customers. We will consider it in the future if there is increased customer demand.
