  1. Legal Holds based on Metadata

    Allow the ability to put content on Legal Holds based on metadata attached to the document. Customers may utilize metadata moreso than custodian or date to identify content to be placed on Legal Hold

    not planned  ·  jfain responded

    As metadata usage is currently quite low, and because this is possible via the API, this is not currently planned for support within the Governance UI. We may reconsider with more customer feedback or higher usage of metadata.

  2. Provide a FILE.EDIT Webhook to trigger events in the event of a user editing a file.

    We have most Webhooks available, but it seems that it would be advantageous to be able to trigger a process based on someone editing a file - such as locking and notifications etc.

  14. Change local BfD folder UI to distinguish if collaborators are in folders (like webapp)

    Add UI to local BfD folders to know ownership/collaborators of folders (i.e. yellow = no collabs, grey = external collab, blue = owned externally + collaborators)

    We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap.  Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

  15. Allow users to suppress problem items they do not have permissions to fix

    For example, you are a Viewer Uploader on a folder that contains restricted Windows characters.

    As a Viewer Uploader, you do not have permissions to rename the folder.

    Now, your BFD client will forever complain about this folder.

    We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap. 

    We will be suppressing server-side problem item (files that cannot sync to Box Drive from Box.com) notifications starting in Box Drive v2.4 in an effort to reduce the noise while we work towards solving this problem in a better way.

  16. Allow Auto-Provisioning from Box for Desktop

    Our current desktop apps (Sync, Box for Office) do not support allowing a user to auto-provision their account during the login process.

  17. Make Box Sync test proxy configuration using the domain that failed the request

    Currently if Box Sync fails a network call, it will check if it should be using a proxy by making requests to https://www.box.com and http://www.box.com regardless of the domain that failed the call.

    This is problematic for customers who have different proxy rules/servers setup for different Box domains.

    For example, if Box Sync is failing to download a new version from e3.boxcdn.net, it needs to check what proxy it should use for boxcdn.net and not box.com.

  18. Ability to Suppress Login Screen from Popping Up

    Often times customers want to deploy the Box desktop apps, including Box Sync, prior to users actually being able to log in and create their accounts. Currently, Box Sync auto-starts upon startup to a user's computer, which causes the Box Sync login window to constantly appear.

    This request is to provide a simple way for admins deploying the apps to suppress that login page until a later point in time.

  19. Unified Desktop Apps Installer (for Box Sync, Notes, Tools/Edit)

    For companies who prefer users to 'opt in' to using Box apps instead of push installation, they would like to have a single 'app bundle' that users can download and install multiple Box applications at once.
