  1. Custom messages, settings and language depending on geography.

    We need a different trash setting to the global instance due to european law.

    This is not currently planned on the roadmap. The suggested workaround is to manage different users in different EID.

  4. Unable to see file/folder/metadata details when viewing deleted files

    Scenario: A user deletes a folder and the admin, from content manager, is looking to quickly see which files were in that folder. Conversely, if a file is deleted, it's not easy to see which folder it was in.

  5. Ability to see additional info from a shared link (file/folder owner, parent folder/location, etc.)

    Oftentimes, users get access to a link that is shared with them via email, chat, etc.

    If the owner or the file is deleted, moved, or transferred, there isn't an easy way to identify where the file lives and who owns it either from an end user or admin perspective.

    Currently, we have to reach out to Box Support to look up the file ID or shared link to get this information.

    This is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized. We will reconsider with additional feedback.

  6. More granular setting options for users set to "Inactive" in the Admin Console

    We would like two sub options for accounts set to "Inactive" status in the Edit User Profile details (in addition to the existing Inactive setting behavior):

    Inactive sub-option 1: Enable a warning for all existing shares and collaborations that the Inactive user owns. If another user is accessing a folder owned by the Inactive user, they should be informed that the content could be deleted with the deletion of the account, and that a copy should be taken quickly.

    Inactive sub-option 2: Enable a warning AND make content read-only for all existing shares and collaborations that the Inactive user owns.…

    This is a good use case, but other user statuses might partially solve some of these needs. Let us know in the comments if it does not.

  7. Dashboards - Enhanced (and Exportable) Dashboards in Admin Console

    This request is for enhanced dashboards inside the Admin Console, specifically:
    1. Exportable dashboards
    2. Customizable - add options to choose custom date ranges, etc.
    3. Allow for a 'double click' into the charts to see far more information - for example, don't just show me the top 5 users by storage total (like we do now) -- also allow me to 'double click' on that chart to see my top 100 or 500 even.

    We intend to improve the Insights dashboard to provide more interactivity and customization. We will be working on the prerequisites to enable those improvements this year and will revisit these suggestions once they have been completed.

  8. Query-less search

    Add intelligent search by location, date, etc. but the Search API requires a query. I recommended setting the query to the file extension.

  9. Enhanced Error Page when Standard App is DISABLED & Box for EMM is ENABLED

    In companies that have the standard Box App disabled due to using Box for EMM, the current error page when users attempt to log into the regular Box app (that they download from their phone's app store) isn't intuitive at all - it simply tells them that this app is disabled and to contact their admin.

    In EIDs where Box for EMM is used, this error page should instead let users know that their company uses Box for EMM and to go to their company's app store to download Box for EMM.

    The error message is generic because it includes several states where you can get into this incorrect flow. A change would take a significant amount of effort that currently is lower priority than other items on our roadmap.

  10. Automatic warning when generating "people with link" shared link

    Generating a shared link with "people with link" settings is very easy for end users, to the point where they might not realize the degree to which they open that content up to hard-to-mitigate, external distribution. An automatic warning, when an end user selects" people with link," is required per company security policy.

    We understand the concern and believe the proper way to implement this is to either allow the admins to default shared links to “people in my company” and/or when a user selects “people with link” and admin can select a setting to pop up a warning message. We wouldn’t want to implement this by default to all customers since this is adding friction to sharing which will have a negative effect on that action.

  11. The ability to schedule when Sync updates files/folders

    Our user would like to be able to sync content only when they need to, to reduce their memory usage throughout the day when they are working.

    This is not planned for our near or long term roadmap. We will reconsider with added use cases and/or customer demand.

  16. Ability to save/copy to my local box when a public link is shared with me

    When someone shares a public link to me via Box, I am unable to add/copy the file to my local Box. I have to download from the web then reupload to Box.com. Even though I am signed into Box.com I am unable to save/copy locally to my file structure. (conversely, if someone shares with my box email directly I then see it in my Recents, but this is not always the case)

  17. Box Sign: Ask new file name at the start of using Box Sign templates

    I know we can change the file name from the menu at top-right, but users forget to change the file name before sending the request. New files will be created with the file names like "Template", "Template (1)" "Template (2)"... in the same folder. Users who receive the requests cannot identify the content of the file from that kind of file names. Also, it is annoying to rename the file after sending requests.

  19. PLEASE remove the sidebar/ let users customize view

    Please allow users to customize the view...

    I don't need to see the size of a document in the folder. I don't use the information provided in the sidebar. I would appreciate the option of customizing certain items so then can/cannot be displayed.

    In addition, once I set the "hide sidebar", I don't like having to do that for every folder I view... "set it and forget it". If I set it at my opening page, why does it change when I move through the folder system? It should stay "hidden".

    Thank you.

  20. Make "File System" view from Cloud fast path available in Box shuttle.

    Using Cloud fast path for analysis, we found the "file System" view very useful. You could easily navigate up and down the mapped path. Allowing us to present large data sets that could be moved to other folders (archives etc). Seeing folders with sizes and percent of parent. Please add this back to the Box Shuttle Analysis set.
