Receive notification when transfer of content is completed
When deleting and transferring content to another user and an error is thrown, it is not clear to the user when all the content has successfully been moved due to the error message thrown.
We would like to know when all the content has finally completed so we can delete the user without any concerns.

Account Settings - Home Page: Allow Co-Admins to Make Admin Console Their Home Page
Within the new UI, a new user-level setting was added to Account Settings that allows users to choose their default Home Page in Box - All Files, Favorites, or Recents.
Additionally, Primary Admins can choose to have the Admin Console as their homepage. However, Co-Admins do not see this option.
REQUEST: Allow Co-Admins to also choose the Admin Console as their Home Page

Expire all shared links at parent-level folder
Request the ability to expire all shared links generated within a parent folder on a selected date. Shared links should still be able to be generated independently on files, subfolders, etc. but have the ability to control & manage the expiration holistically at the parent level.
2 votesWe do not plan to implement this for the time being. We will reconsider with additional demand or use cases.

Preview Movie Files Without The Need To Render
Video files are taking a long time to render. We would either like there to be a file format that e can create before uploading files that will stream on Box without the need for a render. Or have the render start immediately once the upload of a video file is complete.

Option to Hide Last Update Information on content
It is overwhelming when trying to find documents because not only are you looking for the name of the document but you have to visually sift through the "Updated on Nov. 16, 2016 by John Smith" under every single file.
It would be great if Box could either make it an option to hide this (and maybe just hover over the document to see this information) or if it was moved to the right like it is in a regular Shared Drive.

Allow Device Trust to be able to specify drives/disks to include or exclude for the 'full disk encryption' setting.
Currently, if the setting is enabled, it applies to all disks/drives instead of allowing the ability to pick and choose drives to include.
Our company has multiple drives, and one particular drive doesn't need to be encrypted on their end and isn't, but they aren't able to access Box because the 'full disk encryption' setting is enabled in Device Trust, and there's no way to exclude this particular disk.

Integrate with our O365 tenant when opening content from Box
When Box launches content, a generic instance of Word/Excel is launched rather than our specific instance. As MSFT shifts more and more functionality to O365, integration with specific O365 tenants will become more critical.

Apple determines the mapping of apps to URLs. They can either disable Proofpoint for Box URLs or have users click on the open in Box as their workaround.

Granular details around user account edits
Current reports show when a user account was edited, and who/what edited the user account. There are no specific details regarding what on the user account was edited
7 votesThis reporting ask is not yet planned on the roadmap. We are currently prioritizing last activity reporting for managed users.

While this is a very understandable request, most customers are using a third-party eDiscovery tool and therefore we’d like to focus on higher and broader impact features.

Enable users/developers to set Content-Type header on file download
A user requests you treat .PKPass files with a different Content-Type header on download so the iPhone can handle it properly and add it to the user's Passbook.
However, other users would like to be able to influence/set the Content-Type header when initiating a download.
It would be helpful for folks who are trying to have greater control over the user experience, particularly when there is no baked in support for every file type.
0 votesThank you for the suggestion. We will re-evaluate this request based on additional customer demand.

Error Update Notification
Users sometimes get errors that "There was an error with "etc." Please try again later.
For example, a user accidentally deleted a large folder tree that they needed to restore. When they tried to restore it, they were told this item was still in the process of deleting and to try again later.
We would like an email when this action completes so we can continue with our work (in this case, a folder restore)
0 votesThanks for your feedback. We are currently trying to reduce the number of email notifications we send users, so will not be considering adding new emails in the short-medium term.

Sorting - Don't Sort Folders First (Or Provide User-Level Setting to Choose)
The webapp (and mobile) have traditionally always sorted Folders, then Files (followed by Bookmarks) regardless of which sort order (name, updated, etc.) is chosen.
