Update the total storage metric as amount of storage increases
Currently total storage shown on the Admin Dashboard is always in GBs. Since we have multiple TBs or PBs in Box, this number can be difficult to read or convert off hand. It would be better if the metric updated once we pass each metric (i.e. GB, TB, PB, etc.)

Extension for the period of auto trash
The trash function has to auto delete after a set period of time and it causes big effects for retention function and legal hold. We would like to customize this period ourselves.
0 votesHi! When retention policies and legal holds are created via Box Governance, content on retention or legal hold will not get deleted from Trash.
Here’s an article on how retention interacts with Trash: https://community.box.com/t5/Using-Box-Governance-Features/Using-Retention-Policies-to-Manage-Content-Deletion/ta-p/1095#toc-hId-764242391

Gmail - Expose Box Links as Pseudo-Attachments like Drive Links Already Do
When an email contains a link to a Drive file, Gmail is smart enough to keep that link in the email (of course), but also adds a nice 'attachment' UI element to the bottom of the email to make it easier for 1) the user to know what files are attached (really just linked) in the email at a glance, and 2) easy to click on the right one that they want to see.
REQUEST: Provide this same UI/UX for Box shared links that are in emails within Gmail too.
0 votesThis is feature is available within our Box for Gmail Add-On, where the add-on will detect and expose Box Shared Links in the add-on sidebar (Gmail does not allow third-parties access directly in the email UI)

Add 'Description' Field for Groups in Box
Groups in AD have a custom 'descriptions' field; the Groups feature should have the same parity to give more context to Groups within the Admin Console, especially, as a large company, we have many Groups that have similar names.
0 votesYou can add a description for a Group through the Admin Console when creating or editing a group. You can also add a description through the Groups API.

File Picker: Add file preview pane to file picker widget.
We are using the file picker widget in a custom app. We are requesting the addition of a preview pane to the file picker widget so our end users can get a preview of files they are potentially adding.

Make a Custom Action app available to managed users only
Create a public app that is available to members of the enterprise only. We would like to create a custom app that allows users to launch a Record Manager app that's tied to the main enterprise record software.
Currently Box only allows this to be available as a public app, which we do not want to do. We prefer to limit this app to be available to managed users of this EID only.
0 votesIt is possible to create a managed user app for the enterprise’s users only. One can achieve this by creating an OAuth2.0 app and not making the app public by either sharing it on the Box app gallery or making the API key public.

Previewer Uploader Able to Download Files
When a link is sent with the access level set to "Collaborators Only" a "Previewer Uploader" Collaborator can then open the link from their email and have the option to "Open in App" and the IOS app will give them the opportunity to Download the File. The file can then be uploaded to Google Drive and then viewed on a desktop or mobile device. This basically gives the Previewer Uploader the ability to download the file.
0 votesWe prevent this already.

Apply File-Based Policies via API
Having retention policies at the file level (even if only available via API) would make integrations simpler when retention logic is coming from external sources (i.e., other systems).
Providing this functionality would allow for more elaborate use cases. For example, if a classified document is uploaded and identified, it can be automatically retained for a set period of time.
Folder-based retention for everything, as it leads to over-retention of content. In an ideal process, for example, when a document is switched from Draft to Final, the retention policy would be applied to the document (and would work for that version…
