Box for Desktop silent installation / Configuring BFD to start running with SSO/SAML silently
We want to improve the Box experience for all our users without having to inform them about how they install the software OR how they configure it with SSO because then many of them will not install it.

Automatically change file modified date upon upload if modified date is out of range and upload fails
We are trying to upload files that have a modified date of year 1600. We would like for Box to automatically change the modified date upon upload instead of the upload failing
If files have a modified date outside the UNIX range (1970-2038), the upload will fail.
1 voteThank you for the submission. There are no current plans to change this behavior for this individual use case. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Allow admins greater control of Box Edit upgrade process
When Box Edit automatically upgrades upon the release of a new version, there is no way for Admins to stop it and then allow the update at a more optimal time. This can be very troubling for companies with large deployment with the .MSI.
After installation or an upgrade, a user needs to either manually launch Box Edit.exe and Box Local Com Service.exe or log out of their user account and log back in to get the processes running.
At a large scale, this just is not practical and causes a lot of confusion for users and admins alike.

Make Collaboration 'Learn More Info' dynamic based on available collaborator access levels
We have the option to disable certain access levels to simplify the 'access level choices' our users have and customize which roles are able to invite other collaborators
However, when a user goes to invite a collaborator to a folder and clicks 'Learn More,' it is a static image that shows all 7 Collaborator Access Levels.
Instead, please consider:
1) Updating the Learn More info pop-up screen to be dynamic and exclude any access levels that were disabled globally
2) Adding another column labeled 'Invite' and indicate whether both co-owners and editors or just co-owners can invite other collaborators into…

More specific link in "XXXX's download activity is unusual" email.
When a "XXXX's download activity is unusual" email is generated, there is a link in the email.
The link directs just to the admin console where you then have to input the search criteria yourself. Ideally, the notification link would be specific to the user and the download activity.

Unified Desktop Apps Installer (for Box Sync, Notes, Tools/Edit)
For companies who prefer users to 'opt in' to using Box apps instead of push installation, they would like to have a single 'app bundle' that users can download and install multiple Box applications at once.
1 voteThe installers will be separate for the foreseeable future. Share comments below.

This limit is in place to prevent scale related issues. We are not planning to change this in the immediate future.

Metadata Versioning History
As we need to meet specific regulatory or compliance requirements, it's helpful to have a history of the metadata attributes that are applied to a folder or file.
It would be ideal if this was versioned on files/folders in the UI or reportable via user reports.
32 votesAlthough we do not plan to introduce this feature in the near term, we recognize its importance. We will certainly keep this in mind for future roadmap inclusion and we will keep the status of this request updated to accurately reflect our current position.

Add UI to local BfD folders to know ownership/collaborators of folders (i.e. yellow = no collabs, grey = external collab, blue = owned externally + collaborators)
