Box lock security
We just discovered that a user with viewer-uploader permissions can unlock files which our team believes is an unacceptable security flaw. The viewer-uploader level of security is required for a user to create a folder within a folder that we have granted them access to, but other than that level of editing our external invited partners should not have the ability to manage a security feature such as unlocking a file or folder.

Web Interface Search Bug
The web interface won't let you select filters or check boxes from the pop-up menu when searching using Safari. Seems like a bug, as it used to work.

Enhance flexibility to expiration of Public Link
When a Public Link expires, the link is disable and not traceable. Often time endusers do not know what file/folder it was. Especially, when a receiver of the link was an external user like customer, we would like at least to identify which one it was internally. So I would like an option to automatically update Public Link to Company Link or Collaborator only link upon expiration.

Sharing Content to Alternate Email Address
Currently when sharing content via email address, if the address used is a secondary email on their account, the UX is to show that the email address is for an external user, rather than a user in your box tenant. Additionally, the full name of the user does not resolve, leading users to believe that the address they selected is inaccurate.
All alternate email addresses should be treated as searchable attributes that bring up the user profile rather than just the primary.

transferring annotations
Hi. I'm a professor and I created a BoxNote with a text I want my students to annotate collaboratively. I added some annotations, comments, and hyperlinks to get them started. Then I copied this BoxNote to another folder for a second section of the class. The hyperlinks transferred, but the annotations and comments did not. It would be cool if BoxNote supported the total transfer of material in a text, not just the hyperlinks. AND I can't copy and paste all those annotations so now I have to type it all up from scratch. That's a drag. Please design a…

Ability to Remove Collaborator Expiration via web app or API
Collaborator expiration was turned on for a short period of time now we only have the option of extending the date the collaborator will be removed. The user would like this removed completely even though I can set the to expire in the distant future. The only other resolution is to remove and re-add those collaborators. So it would be great to have a feature where the admin/owner/co-owner could not only extend but remove the expiration on the folder.

Skills that are configured to fire on 'All content in your company' in the enterprise should fire when I copy a folder with content
We have a skill that is configured to fire on 'All content in your company' in the enterprise, but when I copy a folder with content the skills is not triggered. Skills only trigger at the file level, not on files within a folder that are moved.

Apptec
We use an EMM called Apptec360 to manage our mobile devices. It would be nice if this can be supported by Box for EMM.

Option for condensed/compact UI
Please consider an option for a condensed Web UI (similar concept to Gmail's cozy/compact): smaller icons, less white space, options to eliminate interface elements like the sidebar. It would be nice to be able to fit more information (filenames, file lists, etc.) on the screen.

Remove shares no longer available after the owner was deactivated
We deactivated one user who retired. The folders he owned disappeared in Box Web for the shared users but they didn't disappear in Box drive, so users could still create files which were not saved in Box.
Could deactivated shares be updated very quickly in Box Drive to avoid that behavior please?4 votes -

Set enterprise settings via api
We have an open risk item on the Box platform due to lack of controls on change management.
Specifically:
Box console settings must be manually performed across dev, test and production environments.
Lack of automated mechanisms to maintain consistency with the settings across the environments may allow weaknesses in lower environments (dev/test) to be exploited to exfiltrate data or modify data or inconsistencies between functionality tested in lower environments and what is configured in prod.
We would like the ability to be able to configure the settings via API so we can build environment management into out CICD pipeline. We…10 votes -

Extend expiration dates to be shown in their user activity reports
For external collaborations, it shows the date the collaboration is going to end when it's first set in the user activity to report as
-Action: Collaboration expiration
-Details: To: YYYY-MM-DDHowever when you extend this period, the "To: YYYY-MM-DD" isn't displayed so you don't know until when it's extended until unless you go the individual folder/file itself and look at the "clock" mark manually.
In the report
-Action: Extend collaborator expiration
-Details: [Blank]The customer wants to have a grasp of each expiration dates so they're saying looking at each item manually on Box is impractical.

API: "email_alias" Is it possible to register other than the same domain?
API: "email_alias" Is it possible to register other than the same domain?
At this time, if you disable it until the email address is confirmed with
the same specifications as when registering from the UI,
I think that you can prevent misuse.Example)
Suppose a customer wants to give a user two email addresses in different
domains before the company integrates.
↓
This specification allows administrators to bulk register using
the API without user effort.1 vote -
Allow configuration of permissions to apply and change each classification created
To apply or change a classification, select "Owners/co-owners and editors" in the classification settings, and then click Users with editorial privileges or higher can apply and change the classifications.
However, by implementing a feature that allows configuration of permissions to apply and change each classification created, the Security can be enhanced.6 votes
