   Thank you for the feedback. This is not currently a priority on the roadmap, but we will monitor and revisit based on user feedback.

3. Default new collaborators to Viewer (or any level) rather than Editor.

   If they want the Collaborator to be an Editor, the inviter needs to physically make that change from a dropdown when inviting.

5. User-Level 'History/Activity Manager' - View Prior Actions with Option to Undo

   Users often perform a variety of actions in their account - renaming files, moving files, copying files, etc.

   There's always a success/failure banner (with an 'undo' button) for these larger actions (like move/copy), but that banner is dismissed pretty quickly

   There are scenarios, however, where a user performs an action (especially a somewhat destructive action - like accidentally moving a bunch of files) and they need to undo it AFTER the 'undo?' banner disappears.

   REQUEST: Add an 'Activity Manager' or 'History Manager' at the account level that allows a user to view their actions and undo applicable ones. For example, an entry would be: "You moved X files on x date to x location. | Undo?"

6. Create per-machine version of Box Edit

   The user is trying to use Box Edit on a Mac shared between two users. If they use the Switch User option, the second user's file will open under the first user's profile/login session. The second user doesn't see anything.

   No plans to support this for now. We will consider this at some point in the future when we get more usage data for this scenario.

7. Support for managed user authentication by unique ID other than email address

   Email address is not a reliable identifier in our world because it tends to change for the end user at certain times:

   User decides to legally change their name (via marriage or other situation)

   User is moved from one business unit to another (which prompts a change in their email domain suffix from person@busunit1.company.com to person@busunit2.company.com)

   User goes on a leave of absence (in which case the email address is removed or temporarily disabled in their HR system)

   When these changes happen (usually initiated from their HR system), it will percolate downstream to update their other applications. Their IdP manages user identities by a unique identifier called GUID along with the user's email address.

   Because of the unreliability of email address they prefer to authenticate into their applications by the GUID instead.

9. Convert Email Attachment to Box Link when forwarding email

   When a file (not in Box) is received by email, the user would like to forward it along as a Box link, rather than a file itself.

   It is cumbersome to download the attachment, then upload it to Box, generate a link, and forward the email with the newly generated link.

   Ideally, I would like a button in the email app (Outlook or Gmail) that allows me to forward email and convert attachment(s) to shared links.

10. If a managed user triggers IP CAPTCHA, send an email notification to the enterprise's admin.

    If a user triggers CAPTCHA on an IP address, it could potentially impact many users if our account is NATing our IPs to one external IP.

    Typically this is caused by an end user saving a bad set of credentials into some kind of client (FTP or WebDAV) that is constantly trying to reconnect.

    This request makes sense, but this is not something that is planned for the foreseeable future.

    I will keep monitoring similar cases and prioritize once this becomes a high value request.

11. Block Uploads of File Types, rather than quarantine upon upload

    We want the option to totally prevent the upload of any specified file types to users accounts.

    We do not like the current method that still allows files to be uploaded, but are quarantined. Users can still download or edit the file as an option.

    We want complete restriction of specified file types being uploaded by users.

    The 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.

12. Collaboration Whitelisting - Add Ability to Whitelist Specific External Users

    The Collaboration Whitelist feature is currently scoped to whitelist entire domains

    REQUEST: Take this current domain whitelisting a level deeper by only allowing certain users from a given domain to collaborate with ones own EID, aka introduce user-level external collaboration whitelisting controls to where a company can say "block all collaboration with all @acme.com users except for X @acme.com users"

    No plans at this time to make this more granular – while we’re interested in this one, to make this feature work well there is a decent amount of UI complexity to sort through on both the admin and end-user side.

13. New type of user - Managed External User

    Box users need a way to: authenticate and manage external users + invite them to collaborate in a more efficient manner, similar to how it is done with managed users via groups.

15. Alert users that they cannot add root folders through Box Sync when 'Restrict Content Creation' is turned on

    Users are attempting to upload folders to Box Sync which automatically appear as if a root folder would be made (acknowledging that the folder will not upload a red 'x' will appear).

    The admin is asking for an alert that reminds the users that they cannot create root folders. Many of their end users have tried to upload folders through sync and assume that they will load despite the 'restrict content creation' setting.

    We’ll keep this in mind! However, this is not currently planned. Let us know additional use cases which this would resolve.

17. Shared Links - Ability to Have Multiple Shared Links per Item (Folder/File)

    Currently, Box's shared link system is a 1:1 ratio between items (files/folders) and shared links, meaning there's 1 shared link per item.

    However, there are various scenarios where users would like to have the ability to create multiple shared links per item, each link with different permissions, etc.

    Example Use Case: For File A...
    --I want one 'people with the link' link with a password added and an auto-expiration set for 10 days from today so that I can share this link to time-sensitive content externally
    --I also want a persistent 'people in your company' link that my internal colleagues can use. I don't want this one to expire since we've been emailing this link around internally for a while

    REQUEST: Change Box's shared link system from a 1:1 ratio with item to a 1:Many item to link ratio.
