  1. Give me better tools for managing external users. More search options, different sorts and ability to do mass operations.

    When you have a large number of external users, you find it cumbersome to manage. It would be helpful to have better ways to search for users and ways to edit existing external users. Also, adding expiration dates to their access would be helpful.

  2. Allow individual file sharing to groups

    Currently, you can share folders with groups, but not individual files. I have a custom tutorial I'd like to share with a user group wihtout nesting it in a folder, like the "Get Started with Box" PDF file does, but there is no option for it. Optimally, I'd prefer to see an option in which we could replace the "Get Started with Box" PDF file with our own PDF tutorial that addresses our specific needs.

  4. Contact search on first and last name when sharing a folder

    When searching a contact to share a folder with, the first name, surname and even the email address should be listed as results if they contain the string you are looking for.

    Today search "Smith" to find "John Smith" doesn't give any result, but searching "John" will give "John Smith". The issue is that something you only know the first name or last name of the contact you're looking for. Mickey Mouse might be registered as "Mouse Mickey" and won't be found searching "Mickey". Disturbing.

  5. Provide notification when auto-provisioning of user accounts fails because a Box account already exists.

    We use auto-provisioning to create Box accounts in our Box managed enterprise environment. When a user is added to a specific group in Azure AD, this kicks off something that creates the account in our Box environment. However, it is possible that users have an existing lite Box account from former roles. When this happens the auto provisioning fails without warning due to a duplicate account. We would like to be notified when this happens. We can see the error in the Azure logs but those are not easy to use for alerting due to sheer size and think this…

  6. Restrict Access Right to Sub-Folders

    Hello,

    After creating FOLDER A and SUB-FOLDERS B, C, D under A, along with sub-subfolders E, F, G under B, I granted User X viewer access to A. However, I aim to restrict or remove their access to C, E, F, and G. Unfortunately, this functionality isn't currently available with Box.com. Could you consider adding this feature? Thank you!

  7. Force user email validation for external collaborators

    In the case that Person P from Company B is laid off and p@b.com mailbox is turned off , the Box.com External Account is still active with whatever security it had. Person P can keep accessing Box.com and CNMLLP content without CNMLLP or Company B knowing about it. Also, external bad actors can guess passwords and gain access, and there's no visibility. If we can force an external collaborator to click a link in a email, for instance in a browser-initiated Password Reset that sends an email right away, then it proves that Person P still has access to P@C.com

  10. The ability to copy collaboration information from one existing folder to another

    There are cases in which we wants to invite collaborators who are invited to one folder to another folder with the same permissions.

    If we have users with the same permissions, we can save time by inviting multiple users at once or creating a group.
    However, setting different permissions for each user takes man-hours and is prone to error if it is checked only checked visually.

    It would be useful to be able to the ability to set the collaborator permissions of an already created folder to another folder as is.

    <フォルダのコラボレーション情報を別のフォルダにコピーできる機能>
    あるフォルダのコラボレータを、別のフォルダにも同じ権限で招待する場合があります。

    同じ権限のユーザーであれば複数まとめて招待したり、グループを作成することで手間を省くことはできますが、
    ユーザー毎に異なる権限を設定する場合、工数もかかり、目視のみの確認だとミスが発生しやすいです。

    既に設定済のフォルダのコラボレーションしている情報を、そのまま別のフォルダに設定できる機能があると便利です。

  12. Save Collaboration Invite

    I included an email address in my invite message, so the invite was not sent and I got the error, "Collaboration invite was not sent because URLs are not supported in the invite message."

    I had dozens of invitees and a fairly long invite message, so it was aggravating when the invite was not saved for me to edit (remove the email in the message) and retry.

  14. Preventing all users with an email address in a managed domain from creating accounts

    We noticed that a box.com account was used to create a Box user in our managed domain. Box mentioned that we can turn off auto enrollment which makes all users with a domain email address managed, but we really want to prevent users for which we have not automatically created Box accounts for from making a managed or unmanaged account.

    I would like to suggest an additional admin control that could prevent users from signing up at box.com using their domain email address.

  15. Please make it possible to send invitations to inactive users.

    Administrator fails when inviting inactive users.
    Please make it possible to send invitations to inactive users.
    After sending the invitation, the administrator activates the target user as required.
    This is a useful feature for large accounts with many administrative users.

  19. allowing admins to sort by what folder permissions a user has so we can mirror those for another user

    allowing admins to sort by what folder permissions a user has so we can mirror those for another user. Right now, I can't sort by permissions under a user. I have to manually scroll down the whole folder structure and then have another window open with the user that needs the same permissions to the same folders, and add them manually. Why can't we sort by folder owner, or permission?

  20. Blind Guide - Instructions for new collaborators

    I wish to state my ongoing frustration with sharing collaborative folders with my clients via box. The instructions for me, as part of a subscribed user group, are clear. The instructions for a new user who we invite to collaborate ARE NOT. You put me in a position of the blind guide when the client or collaborator asks me for help getting to the files – and Box has not provided sufficient instructions. I suspect Box assumes because I have logged into box as a new user once in the past, that I know how to coach a new user…
