Trash deletion is explicitly reported in the Events stream
Today, when item(s) are deleted from the trash it shows up in the Events stream as a general DELETE event. You are not able to tell if the item was in trash or a regular folder. Would be great to have a distinction of event type such as DELETE vs DELETEFROMTRASH.
This is important because there are scenarios to identify when a file is emptied from Trash and thus unrecoverable (outside the 14 day window).

Box-Notification header - Suppress notifications when promoting an email alias to Primary
Extend the Box-Notifications header to suppress notifications when promoting an email alias to Primary via API. This header only appears to work when adding or deleting users email aliases, and the documentation on docs.box.com is not specific as to when this is supported.
This functionality is required to silently mass update users email addresses.

User management settings in mobile app
We would like user management access within the mobile iOS app. We would like to be able to reset a password on the fly as well as deactivate someone quickly if we are not near our computer.
1 voteThank you for the suggest! This is not an area in which we will invest.
App usage would be sporadic and would not drive engagement as much as dedicating our resources towards our existing apps.

Add One-Way Sync
There are so many good use cases for a one-way sync. Sometimes you want to provide access to a library of folders and files to users, but you don't want them to be able to modify them on the server...you just want them to have copies available on their PC.
Why not just give them access on Box with Viewer permissions?
I get that argument, but sometimes you don't want your users to have to go on the internet to access the files...You want them to have the files at their fingertips even when offline...but if they inadvertently delete or…

Thank you for the suggestion. While we do understand this feature would be valuable, it is not currently prioritized for this year. We will update this thread if we decide to revisit this request in the future.

Send Shared Link via Default Email Desktop Application
In shared link pop-up window, include an option to send the link via the default desktop email client instead of through Box. This would open up a new email in their email client with the shared link in the body of the email.
This experience would be similar to the experience of when you click an email address on a website and the default email app on your computer is opened.
0 votesThis is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

Allow Save to PDF from Office to point to Box share.
Users currently use the "Save as Adobe PDF" which I believe is a plugin for Office. It generates a popup window for "Acrobat PDFMaker" which uses the standard Windows Explorer.
As a result, users need to save to local drive first, then upload to Box. They'd like to save a PDF directly to Box.

Ability to restrict Uploader permissions from being able to see file names in folders
We have folders where different companies can submit content via the Uploader collaborator permission. Because there are different companies submitting into the same folder, we do not want collaborators to see what others have uploaded.
This is not a virtual deal room/bid room in this specific case.
0 votesWe will not make a special collaborator role for this. Our recommended way of doing this would be to use the Upload Widget.

Embed - Add Ability to Remove Header from Embed Widget
In the legacy UI embed widget, there was a parameter in the code to not show the header, which was a great option as we want a streamlined embed widget.
In the new UI embed widget, this option has been removed, meaning the header is ALWAYS shown, which can be a major UI distraction for various embed use cases.
REQUEST: Re-add the ability to remove/hide the header within the embed parameters.
22 votesThanks for the suggestion! This is an awesome idea, but due to competing priorities, this is feature request not currently on our immediate roadmap.

We don’t plan to currently support this, as most customers would find it problematic if a user could simply turn on the smallest possible security measures and thus receive a “valid” device.

Remove Option to Download or Edit A Quarantined file.
Remove the option for a user to Download or Edit a quarantine file within Box. This affects security of sensitive information being shared by users.
0 votesThe user who uploads the file already has access to the file in some form – that is why we allow them to download the file if it violates a policy, because it does not extend access.
We do not have plans to change this behavior.

Ability to use JavaScript to customize the Box & Salesforce integration
We would like to be able to use JavaScript to access existing Box folders/files in the Salesforce & Box integration vs using APEX.
2 votesThank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases and demand.
