  1. Remove an invited collaborator's access on a per folder level

    There are use cases where the content owners/co-owners would like the ability to remove an (external) collaborator's access to a folder on a specific date. Understanding that this can be configured at a global level (by setting timeframe), it would be helpful to have this on a per folder level as well.

    This would be beneficial as various departments/users share data of varying sensitivity and in various use cases (such as sharing with an external contractor whose contract is for X months).

  2. Box Legal Hold Export API

    The current Box Legal Hold Exports function becomes difficult to manage at scale. The export process itself generates "batch" zip files that need to be manually downloaded via the user interface. Because the zip files are limited to 5,000 files or aprox 16 GB, I have one user to export who has over 500 "batch" zip files to download. The API does not support directly downloading these batch files. A way to bulk download or programmatically download these batch files is essential when exporting a very large (either in pure storage size or in number of files) user hold.

  3. Reporting Tools for Box Relay and Box Canvas Via Console and API/SDK

    It would be nice to have a report available in the admin section for Relay and Canvas, as well as access via REST API / SDK so we can generate our own reports.

  4. Folders and Files reports - exclude filename

    Provide the ability to exclude filename from "Folders and Files" reports. We would like to be able to exclude this field since it may contain sensitive data. This is currently a field that is not able to be excluded. If there is a required field we would prefer if to be File ID. This is important since we would like to be able to perform usage analysis but do not want to provide sensitive data (even metadata) to our data analysts.

  5. Create Relay for User Onboarding/Offboarding

    I don't see Relay as a category option.....

    Note, my users aren't owners of their data. They are only editors.

    I have Azure AD user provisioning enabled to create and update users. As part of the user onboarding process, I would like for Relay to be able to see when:

    a user has been created > create a personal folder for that user in a business unit related directory > share folder with user

    a user has been disabled > move personal folder to an archived folder directory (related to their business unit)

  6. Create Relay to Connect to Users Table

    The only way to view the number of user licenses consumed is to view the Insights in the Admin Console. Unless you look there, there's no visibility. When I approach my purchased license limit, I would like to build a Relay that can tap into the users table to monitor the number of licenses then alert me when that limit is approaching.

  9. Enable linking of Google slides and spreadsheets between Google slide presentations and spreadsheet workbooks so source updates cascade.

    Enable native Google functionality that exists between their products and allows the linking of content such as slides and spreadsheets between different G-suite presentations and workbooks. This allows updates made to source slides and spreadsheets to cascade down into other locations where they've been linked, avoiding the need to perform manual updates to the different instances of the slide or spreadsheet. Very useful when similar slides are being used between different decks.

  10. Upgrade Search capability to be included on Fedramp High BOX Accounts

    It would be ideal to keep all of the power of search capability with the BOX Fedramp high accounts. You currently lose the search capability of searching within the first 1000 words in a document when you upgrade your account to Fedramp High.

    If there is a way to update the search capability for those fedramp high accounts to have encrypted search for the first 1000 words that would be ideal. It is one of the better features in the BOX system.

  11. Partial match search for email addresses to generate invitation candidates

    When inviting a user, when I enter an e-mail address or a kanji name, forward matching results in a list of candidates, but partial matching does not.
    I would like to be able to perform a partial match search.

    [In Japanese]
    ユーザー招待を招待するときにメールアドレスまたは漢字名を入力すると、前方一致している場合は候補が表示されるが部分一致だと候補に出てこない。
    部分一致検索ができるようにしてほしい

  12. Request for the ability to not display specific folders in BoxDrive

    BoxDrive is very convenient because it can be used as an explorer, but due to user operational error
    folders or files may be moved to unintended folders.
    Folders to be collaborated outside the company can lead to information leakage,
    We request for improve that specific folders can only be operated and viewed with the Box Web Browser.

    (Japanese)
    BoxDriveはエクスプローラとして使えるので利便性が高いが、ユーザーの操作ミスにより
    フォルダやファイルを意図せぬフォルダに移動させてしまうことがある。
    社外コラボレーションするフォルダは情報漏洩につながることがあることから、
    指定したフォルダはBOX Webブラウザのみでしか操作・閲覧ができないようにしたい

  13. Added a function to delete all at once in the capture history.

    If it can clear local storage without logout, Box capture will be easier to use.

    Captureモード(継続キャプチャ)にて撮影した写真は
    ローカルストレージの容量を消費します。
    ※ストレージ上限を超えてCaptureモードを利用することはできない。

    キャプチャ履歴内のすべてのコンテンツを一工程で全選択し、
    削除できるようになれば、Captureモードの利便性が向上します。

  14. Disabling shared links after the link is viewed

    Currently there is the option have the shared link expire on a specific date. It would be beneficial to also have a shared link be disabled as soon as it is viewed. Having a link that's "one-time use only" would be ideal in various use cases like sharing sensitive information.

    Having this also be the case for invited external parties would be helpful.

  15. I would like to be notified when an error occurs and an item cannot be uploaded, or to be able to check the error log in the report.

     エラーが発生してアイテムのアップロードができなかった際に通知、またはレポートでエラーログを確認できるようにしてほしい

    内容
     When an error occurs when uploading a large number of items, it is difficult to list the items that could not be uploaded from the UI.
     For this reason, we would like the following functions to be added.
      ・If an error is detected when uploading to a folder that contains file requests, notify the user who uploaded the file or the owner of the file via e-mail or on the web.
      ・A function to output the log of failed uploads to the user activity report.

    <Japanese>
     大量のアイテムをアップロードしたときにエラーが発生し他場合、UI上だとアップロードができなかった対象アイテムをリストアップすることが難しい。
     そのため、以下機能を追加してほしい。
      ・ファイルリクエストを含むフォルダへのアップロード時に失敗したことを検知したらアップーロードしたユーザや所有者にメールもしくはWEB上で通知する機能
      ・ユーザアクティビティレポートにアップロードに失敗したログを出力する機能

  16. Customizable webapp columns such as folder owner

    It would be nice for users to be able to customize the columns they see in the webapp. Particularly being able to add a 'Folder Owner' column like OneDrive has. Similar to the way you can go from grid to list view, but add a column between Name and Updated for Folder Owner.

  17. Allow setting passwords on folders

    Setting passwords on files is good, but we should be able to set passwords on folders (at any level of a folder structure). The ability to set passwords on folders should be limited to owners and co-owners.

  19. malwarebytes

    One of the restrictions you can place on Box sign-ins is verifying appropriate antivirus is in place. For the Mac side, Malwarebytes is not one of the allowed antivirus solutions, but it is what we have deployed at our company. Please add Malwarebytes to the allowed list of antivirus solutions on the Mac.

  20. 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.
