  1. Fix missing Access-Control-Allow-Origin header for CORS 401 requests

    This relates to the upload files API endpoint (https://developer.box.com/reference/post-files-content/) but likely applies to other endpoints as well.

    When making a call to the above endpoint via CORS, you provide a Bearer token to the request. This token is used to identify the box account to make the request on behalf of, which is then used to return an Access-Control-Allow-Origins header configured to that box account's CORS whitelisted domains.

    In the case of a successful request to the above endpoint, the OPTIONS preflight request returns the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header with the request origin set. The actual POST request then returns…

  2. File Request templates so users can select pre-built

    We would like File Request templates. An admin could create pre-built templates from which users can select for consistent branding and avoid the burden on users to create.
    This will help to manage branding across the various subsidiaries in our organization and reduce friction from those being asked to upload files as they will know exactly where the request is coming from.

  3. File Request Link | MS Outlook Plug-in

    Our customers are asking for the ability to generate a "File Request Link" via the outlook plug-in.

    As it stands today, the plug in is limited to only sharing folders & files.

  4. Print Into Box

    I want to be able to print documents into Box by having Box appear as a printer like adobe so that if I am working in an application that generates a document, I can print it into box rather than having to save it and then upload it.

  5. Request: Monitoring function when uploading and labeling

    With security reasons, automatic labeling function when uploading is very important for our user.

    Our users request the functionality to see the upload and labeling status in real time.

    The labeling function is very useful, however, sometimes it seems not working, so if the user can see the status up uploading and labeling, it is very useful for users.

    I hope that you will offer that funtion in the near future.

    セキュリティ上の理由から、アップロード時の自動ラベル付け機能はユーザーにとって非常に重要です。

    当社のユーザーは、アップロードとラベル付けのステータスをリアルタイムで確認する機能を要求しています。

    ラベル付け機能は非常に便利ですが、うまく動作しないこともあるので、アップロードやラベル付けの状況が確認できると、ユーザーにとっては非常に便利です。

    近い将来その機能を提供してくれることを願っています。

  6. Unintentional redirects in filerequests

    When accessing a file request link created by another tenant, you may be redirected to your own environment with the error "This page is unavailable or no longer accepting submissions." error.
    The conditions under which this error occurs are
    The publisher is in an environment that requires SSO
    The "Require uploader to login to Box" is ON in the settings.

    I would like to be able to upload files correctly without redirecting to my environment even under these conditions.

  7. Sender details included with uploads

  8. We'd like to limit amount of metadata downloaded by folder GET operation

    We upload one or more files daily to the same folder so the content list of this folder keeps growing. In order to upload first step is to GET the folder by id. This step (https://developer.box.com/reference/get-folders-id/) appears to download metadata of every file in the folder and there's no way to limit it. It ends up being completely unnecessary because preflight check (https://developer.box.com/reference/options-files-content) doesn't need any of it. So, there should be a parameter in folder GET to skip downloading so much metadata.

  9. Enable to obtain information about the uploader of a file uploaded via file request.

    I would like to use the Box API to obtain information about the uploader of a file uploaded via a file request.
    In the current specification, the "createdby" and "modifiedby" names of these files are both "Anonymous User" even if the file was uploaded by a user who is logged into Box.

  13. Stand up on bandwidth and API usage.

    Hi I am a user on the Enterprise plan, but the limitations on upload/download and API calls for the Enterprise plan are really not enough.

    Can the monthly file upload and download or bandwidth usage limit be changed to 10TB?

    As for API calls per month, can the monthly API call limit be changed to 2,000,000?

    I think this replacement rule proposal is a good fit for both parties.

  14. Add TeX as a supported file type

    Much of my lab's documentation is written in LaTeX, or even vanilla TeX.
    It would be incredibly useful to have .tex in the list of recognized
    file types so that they can be displayed and/or edited in the browser
    client.

  15. Please add detailed logging for upload issues/failures

    Please add logging for upload errors so admins can properly troubleshoot errors. Right now there's no information shown beyond the folder causing an upload issue and no details on why the upload failed ie: file or folder name, format, length, etc.

  16. Ability to use the client share link with templates

    I would love for the client share link you can create for individual folders to have the ability to be built from templates. Having to add logos and file descriptions and additional file categories to every client upload link can take some serious time. This should be able to be streamlined by adding the ability to copy from templates so that clients can easily drag and drop files/folders into the correct category and with the added benefit of feeling more professional with company logos already set up for the links

  17. API Calls to Get Folder ID from File Request URL

    Currently the only way to get the Folder ID that's associated for a File Request URL that exists is to know the Folder ID or the File Request ID that you're looking for before you do. Its easy if the user says this is the folder, but if they only have the link you're forced to run User Activity reports to attempt to locate what was created, even harder if you don't know the original user who created the file request and they don't know the folder.

    It would be extremely beneficial to be able to make an API call…

  20. Restructure API endpoints to only use one base URL

    We're currently pushing documents from a different system through your APIs using an integration platform.
    Here we are uploading files and then assigning metadata templates to them for later use in searches and checking for versions, etc.

    The integration platform vendor is taking pay through every baseline URL we add to the system as a connector and then allowing us to basically have as many connections to the same system as we want using that base URL. This is relevant to our challenge.

    When utilizing the Box API, the base URL (based on the documentation I've found) for uploading documents…
