  1. Bulk Edit - Add Email Alias Column(s) to Bulk Edit Spreadsheet

    Currently there's no way for an admin to manage/edit email aliases for their users in bulk via the Admin Console (they must develop custom scripting to do so).

    REQUEST: Add the ability to edit/add email aliases for users when using the Bulk Edit feature (meaning add an alias column to the spreadsheet that allows the user to enter multiple aliases in one cell, separated by a delimeter like a semicolon - exactly what we already have for the Groups column of the spreadsheet).

  6. Copy users access on a one of basis

    We would like a button which will allow the user to copy a users profile exactly. We do not want to have the user go in and invite to each folder or use groups in the use case

    not planned  ·  katiele responded

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. However, we’d like more clarification from the requester about this suggestion to help us understand the problem better.

    Provide more information to the end user if their account is blacklisted from receiving notifications from Box.

  8. Shared Links - Allow Linking to Specific Page of Document

    Example: SlideShare allows you to create a shared link that opens the slides up directly into a specific slide. In this case, slide 10: http://www.slideshare.net/kaz.goto/ss-65352833/10

    Box Use Case: I want to give you a link to a multi-slide/document file, but I want you to start on page 5 first.

    While the request here is clear, this is not planned on our roadmap. The workaround would be to alert a set of admins on the account and have them deactivate or make the user inactive.

  12. Ability to play video from grid view in new UI

    As opposed to having to click into the file to preview the video playback

    Thank you for this suggestion. This would be a pretty big change from a technical perspective and is not currently planned.

  13. Selectable Folder from "Add hyperlink" option of Box Notes

    Detailed step:
    1. Open Box Notes file
    2. Select strings in the file
    3. Click "Add hyperlink" option

    Expected: Selectable Box Folder directly.

  14. 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.

  16. 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,…

  17. 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.

  18. 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…

  19. Add Search Ability for Deleted Users

  20. 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.
