Actions to make documents and folders (box drive, 'Make Available Offline' ) appear in reports as Downloads - same as normal downloads
When identifying anomolous downloads (ie potential data leakage), we utilise both Box Shield alerts and User Activity reports to establish details.
However, User Activity reports (csv, column E 'Action') do not differentiate between those documents and folders downloaded, and those that are 'Made Available Offline'. When attempting to avoid data leakage, the difference is important. Making content available offline is a legitimate task for users. However, large quantities of normal downloads may indicate fraudulent theft of data.
We need to be able to differentiate between the two types, as soon as possible
Because User Activity Reports record items as 'Download'…

Notification that someone you assigned a Task did not complete it by the deadline you set
Often I assign Tasks with deadlines. While the person receiving the task gets notifications that the deadline is approaching, I do not get a notification if they did not complete the Task on time.
This would be extremely helpful to know that Tasks have not been completed so we can follow up.3 votes -
Progress Bar when uploading and restoring
Is there any progress bar or any visible information where we can know the progress of tasks being run? For example, I wanted to recover a 200gb folder. It took a long time to find the data that needed to be restored. This is a similar thing when uploading files onto Box onto the web app. There is a progress bar but when a user goes to a new page it disappears and it is still running in the background

Remove the cautionary message at the bottom of file request page
At the bottom of file request link, the following message is displayed:
"Before submitting, please make sure that you trust this site, have the rights to the data and want to share this content to the owner of this file request.
Box Terms of Service|Box Privacy Notice"It does not seem professional at all. As we are paying to use the services, this should not be displayed. Okay if you want to advertise that its Box platform, leave the terms and privacy notice. If you are law firm etc, people are already cautious about sending files. the "advice" seems very…

Sort files/folders/etc by exclusively names
Right now can only sort files and folders by name separately ie. 04 folder, 05 folder, 01 file, 02 file, 08 link, 09 link etc. Would like them all in a row as they are steps to complete/fill out:
01 file
02 folder
03 link
04 file
etc...1 vote -

Online-only applied recursively to mixed folder
It would be great if you could "online-only" a given folder when its contents within are a mix of partially online and offline.
My workflow often requires me to have individual files sporadically made available offline within folder structures, over weeks and months. Easy to lose track of what's locally stored and what's not.
I don't seem to have an option available to click on a given folder with partially offline / partially online files and just tell it to all become "online only" in a recursive manner.
On these types of partially synced folders, all I see is the…

Support for passing of special characters (as-is) in query (Box Metadata Query API)
Per the suggestions ...
Use of an "=" could be utilized
Unfortunately, this would break the ability for our search bar to also do loose matches around the "typed search term"
(e.g. "Broadway &" query will not return "Broadway & Commercial"Use of "%" wildcard to replace noted special character
Unfortunately, the results will then be too varied. Any characters will be up for substitution.
(e.g. "C&R" query will then also return "car", "candor", corridor", etc.)*** Could we confirm if there is an appropriate way for special characters to be passed and recognized as-is?
The above suggested workarounds would…

Flag mutliple folders for Offline User
Currently, in order to mark a folder/file for offline, you have to do it individually. It would be nice to have the ability to drag select folders/file and have the context menu provide the option to mark grouped items as available, as you might with any other native Windows function.

Box Relay Outcome to Create Bookmark
It would be great if there was an option to create a bookmark to another folder, for example one that may have triggered the flow. If using multiple different file trees it would help users to be able to navigate around if these could be automatically created.

Leverage the External Identity providers like OKTA to securely access the Box API’s.
Context : Allow box subscription tenants to leverage the External Identity providers like OKTA to securely access the Box API’s.
Use case: Tenants like us want to centralize the access to the APIs to our external vendors partners and internal teams. It is always beneficial to centralize the access using OKTA like OAUTH 2.0 providers and move to zero trust.

Stand up on bandwidth and API usage.
Hi I am a user on the Enterprise plan, but the limitations on upload/download and API calls for the Enterprise plan are really not enough.
Can the monthly file upload and download or bandwidth usage limit be changed to 10TB?
As for API calls per month, can the monthly API call limit be changed to 2,000,000?
I think this replacement rule proposal is a good fit for both parties.

Box Drive uses all upload bandwidth when sync
Set an option to limit the upload (optional and the download) bandwidth when sync is in progress or upload large files, because when devices are connected to slow internet lines, it consumes the entire bandwidth and cannot work properly.
Note that this is a standad feature of other similar tools.1 vote -
We would like to see Box Tools improved to support an on/off switch for proxies
Currently Box Tools does not support the ON/OFF switch for proxy settings, so Excel cannot be used without restarting Box Tools when switching to a connection to another company's service.
It is inconvenient to restart Box Tools every time we connect to another company's service, so we would like to see Box Tools improved to support an on/off switch for proxies so that Excel can be used without restarting Box Tools.＜Box ToolsがプロキシのON/OFFのスイッチに対応するよう改善してほしい＞
現状Box Toolsがプロキシ設定のON/OFFのスイッチに対応していないため、他社サービスの接続へ切り替えの際にBox Toolsを再起動しないとExcelが利用できません。
他社サービスの接続のたびにBox Toolsを再起動するのは不便なので、Box Toolsを再起動しなくてもExcelが使えるようにBox ToolsがプロキシのON/OFFのスイッチに対応するよう改善してほしいです。3 votes
