Apply retention policy to all existing content
Currently with Governance, you have the ability to apply a retention policy to all new content. This policy does not touch any of the existing content within the domain. This is a large issue for an enterprise that wants to apply a single retention policy to the entire domain.

We are currently not planning to implement this feature and will continue to prevent all Box Drive results from appearing in Explorer/Finder searches.
Box Drive does not download the all of the metadata (File name, folder structure, etc.) of your Box content. Instead, it is downloaded on demand and then evicted when it is no longer relevant. This eviction process is not visible to users and it is not easily predictable. This would cause the search results in Explorer/Finder to be inconsistent for users – sometimes they would find a file and other times they may not if the metadata and file were evicted.
We have chosen not to download all of the metadata (and then keep it up to date with changes) as this can result in a large performance, storage and bandwidth tax which is not scalable – especially in environments where users interface with millions of files/folders.

Allow customization of webapp banner color, by providing admins with the option to choose a particular color for a classification level.
We want to be able to edit the color of the in-app classification banner. We classify the security level of content by color as a visual indicator.
4 votesThis is currently not on the roadmap as we have not heard this request from many other customers. We will consider it in the future if there is increased customer demand.

Folder Level Custom Terms of Service (TOS)
Currently, terms of service is enterprise-wide. This presents a conundrum for large enterprises who have several departments, some of which do want the TOS feature but some of which do not.
0 votesWe do not plan to implement this at this time given its narrow use case.

Enable download of watermarked file via public shared link.
We want to be able to distribute watermarked files via public shared link. It's confusing for end users, as well, since the Shared Link settings for allow download is not grayed out when the file is "watermarked".
1 voteWe will review this request once we see additional use cases and customer demand.

Add browse permission level (i.e. read access to properties only, not to the content itself)
Scenario: A user can search a content/get recommendation to content he has no access to. Once the users knows that the content exists, he user can request access to it by asking the owner.
1 voteWe are not likely to implement this in our roadmap. We would like to understand the root problem before pursuing this implementation.

FTP not available to external users for Enterprise accounts.
Currently FTP for Box is only available to Business and Enterprise accounts for bulk migration of data. It is not available for Personal accounts (Free or Pro).
This is problematic for Enterprise users that have external vendors, partners, customers (collaborators) that need to upload a large data set to their Enterprise account through FTP.
Since these external collaborators are Free users, they do not have access to FTP but are still collaborating with us.
REQUEST: Add support for FTP uploads for external collaborators that are specifically collaborating with a paying Enterprise Box account?
8 votesThis is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

Separate current mobile admin console features to iOS and Android-specific
The current mobile settings in Admin Console apply for both iOS and Android. For organizations with complex requirements and technical solutions, it does not always make sense to have the same settings on both OS. It would be helpful to have the set of options for iOS and the set of options for Android.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! We will review this again with additional consumer demand.

Report on Sync Incidents or Errors
A lot of the time, Sync errors are because of users. If you classify and identify these errors for our admin, it can help them use Sync better or identify a way to leverage Web App/Box Drive

Provide a complementary Event in the Events API that a file has been successfully scanned for viruses
We would like to take an action on a file once it has been successfully scanned for viruses. The files are being uploaded from an external party through a white labeled application.
We understand we would get an event that a malicious file has been found. We would also like the opposite event that a file has been scanned and has not been found to be malicious via the API.
9 votesNot currently planned at this time.
