  1. Box CLI resend

    The use case is we would like to resend/remind collaborators with invites of status "pending" using the Box CLI. Triggering new email notifications from Box.

    Presently we have to list the collaborators pending > csv, delete the collaboration, then collaborate again. A single call would make this much more efficient.

  2. Provide Notification when user is removed as a collaborator

    Right now, users do not get a notification when they are removed as a collaborator from a folder. This can cause confusion as this could be caused by a number reasons (ie deletions, inactive users), and results in admin assistance to dive in to what may have occurred. Users do get a notification when they are added to a folder, so they should also get one when they are removed from a folder as well

  5. Reconcile behavior between Edit and Drive after a conflict

    There is different behavior between Box Drive and Box Edit when uploading after conflicted happened. We would like to change behavior as same as Box Edit. This difference might lead to be confusion for the customer.

    Actual Behavior at this moment:

    Box Drive
    1. User A opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
    2. User B opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
    3. User B saves the file X via Box Drive. Upload the changes as version 2 to file X
    4. User A saves the file X via Box Drive. Conflict happened.…

  8. Create dormant to inactive/disabled user workflow

    Provide a report/feature in the admin console where admin can set a max duration a user can be without logging in to Box and then the account is set to inactive/disabled in the enterprise. This is something that is causing issue with cyber security when users have not logged in for a long time but account is still active/available.

  9. File Upload Notification - Ability to set alerts to a specific managed user per folder

    File Upload can be a game changer for our company - with 1 major exception. Notifications in box seem to be all or nothing. Its overwhelming. Most of our team have them all turned off.

    We would like the ability to set a notification for file uploads - per folder - per user/s. Example: Folder named: Dr. Joe with 10 folders within it. One of the sub-folders is named "Uploads from Dr. Joe" A file request link is created and shared with the client for this sub-folder. Then, regardless of who owns the file, you can add certain managed user/s…

  11. Data report (export) from Lite or Individual accounts

    Provide users who have an individual (Lite) account with the ability to export a report on data stored and data collaboration - as per a business account.
    This would be beneficial for data auditing.

  12. Option to have approval process for sharing a folder or file.

    In some folders, you want to allow, shared links, but would like to have some management oversight of this process. It would be beneficial at a parent folder level (and therefore cascading to all children folder) to have the option to "request to share file" in addition to the other functions related to restricting link creation or collaborator invitation.
    Instead of relying on the "appropriate party" to be configured to receive notifications that an item has been shared, this would allow them to be ahead of the curve before a share is actually created.

  13. Single API call to delete user and transfer folders for that user

    Before deleting a user from box system we can transfer the root folder from one user account to
    another.
    Once the root folder is transferred only then delete API must be triggered.
    So in all, the delete operation will have to call two API one to transfer and another to delete.

    But as the transfer API call will return synchronously.
    For users with a large number of files and folders, this means the call could take minutes or hours to return.

    So the delete operation will be in pending state until we receive the transfer API response.

    Does box now…

  14. Auto overwrite if the file is uploaded with the same name in the folder via File Request.

    In the current spec, the file with the same name in the folder is uploaded via File Request, the file name is automatically changed to containing date and time.
    I want the option to overwrite the file when it has the same name of existing files.

  16. Bulk attach Box files via email

    Having to add files to my email one at a time is a horrible user experience and a waste of time. Let me add more than one file at a time.

  17. whitelist external users for File Request Link

    In business you frequently work with external partners or agencies and need to have the ability for those entities to manage a File Request Link. Limiting the File Request Link to just managed users limits the collaboration ability of the business needs.

  18. Allow email notification in folder settings via file request link.

    Now, user cannot get any notification if the file is uploaded via file request link even if notification settings are enabled in the folder settings.
    Could you expand the range of notification to file request link?

  20. Ability to automatically convert Unicode @ (atmark) to single byte

    When non-English users try to use @mention in comment or annotation, they often type @ (atmark or at sign) character with their native language (mostly double bytes, Unicode).

    Just like other cloud services (like Slack), please add ability to automatically recognize and convert double bytes atmark to single byte atmark for non-English user conveniences and to help drive user adoption of these features.

    Reference for at sign character code (Wikipedia):
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At_sign
