Ability to mirror documents in other root folders
Our organization utilizes the collaboration with external users to give them access to view one specific folder relative to their client account. We do not want these users to have access to our main folder that houses the original documents for their client account, but rather only this one specific folder that has a copy of selected documents relative to their positions on the Board. Right now, we have to manually upload or delete new documents to both folders. If there is a change to our original document, we have to manually upload the new version to the copy folder…
1 voteHello, if we understand your request correctly, you could use the bookmark feature to bookmark a link to specific files so the Board will always be routed to the up-to-date version of the original document but not be able to view the rest of the items in the main folder.

File folder tree report needed for potential security breach
Scenario: Employees have improperly stored data in box.com by marking data as public that should not have been labeled in such a manner. The data is sufficiently sensitive that the company would like to quantify and evaluate what has been labeled in such a way to make the data public.
8 votesIt sounds like what is being asked for here is a content report that includes history for when content was marked public. This information can be found by running a User Activity report for Collaboration and Shared Links type events: https://community.box.com/t5/How-to-Guides-for-Admins/Running-Reports/ta-p/26790#useractivity.

Clarification of SDK Authentication
It would be really nice if there was a good clean copy of the authentication methods script. The pieces and parts don't work and it is hard to figure out why. Example... Trying to authenticate with OAuth2 you can't get it to work with the examples and then jumping over to upload files doesn't jive. Aside from the Dev Token method, I can't get anything to work. HOW DO I AUTHENTICATE WITH OAUTH2?
1 voteThe new documentation site has substanitally expanded and clarified information and examples pertaining to Authentication in the SDKs. Please see https://developer.box.com/guides/authentication/select/

When migrating from environment to environment (Example Dev -> QA -> Staging -> Prod. OldProd -> NewProd), supporting multiple redirect URIs would be very helpful. It would reduce the need to create multiple App in the Dev Console.
6 votesIn the Developer Console, under app configuration, it's possible to add multiple redirect URI.

We are making continuous major investments to our Edge infrastructure to improve upload and download performance globally and increase our file size limits (150GB today).
To upload large amount of data, Box Shuttle should be considered and if Box supports FTP, it is not the recommended way to upload large volume of files for both performance and reliability reasons.

We actually already have a ‘Show Folder Tree’ feature in the Web App – you can access it by simply clicking ‘Show Folder tree’ when on the All Files page in your account. Here’s a screenshot of what that feature looks like: https://cloud.box.com/s/zihrv07iv7mei41a0uf8ew5fnc9dlu9n
Hope that helps!

Remove Open with Office Online Option
We would like the ability to remove the option for opening documents in Office Online (ex: Microsoft Excel Online: Open this file in your browser). We are not O365 customers and people are often confused since the option to open in the native desktop Office app looks practically the same.
