  1. Version history control per file basis

    We would like for Owners and Co-owners of a file to have control over limiting the number of versions that can be created on an individual file. Currently, this is an enterprise wide setting and users do not have the option to override the number of versions. Users are requesting this control because the versions count against their individual storage quota.

  2. user.authentication.verify

    I would like to be able to catch the user.authentication.verify event with Event Hooks.
    This is because the above allows applications such as Bookmark apps that do not generate user.authentication.sso to capture successful authentication, and it is possible to execute workflows based on them.

  4. Additional control over Account Lockout

    When a user exceeds the failed login amount threshold, it would be very helpful for there to be an account lockout triggered along with the notification email that would not require an admin to manually set the account to inactive.

  5. Controls for Admins to stop over sharing

    We have seen multiple scenarios where our teams are over sharing entire folder structures with external parties. It would be good as admins/co-admins to have a setting that allows us to disable external sharing.
    I was hoping this could have been done with policies, but since they are hierarchical it would stop the files and folders within the ones we want to lock from being shared!

  6. powerpoint preview

    It would be ideal if, when previewing a PPTX file, the facilitator notes for slides appeared along with the preview of the slide itself.

  7. Allow Admin/Co-Admin to access shared link basic info

    When using BoxItem.Info itemInfo = BoxItem.getSharedItem(api, sharedLink); to retrieve basic information about a shared link, Box returns a 404 when the admin/co-admin doesn't have specific permissions. However, it's possible to see the basic information when you view a shared link report. We're essentially trying to get the same information as the shared link report is able to pull for all files/folders. Discussion of the suggestion is here:
    https://forum.box.com/t/add-ability-to-discover-basic-file-information-from-shared-link/2494

  8. Allow list html tags in custom TOS.

  10. Audit Log for Outbound Email Status

    Feature request to allow an audit log for outbound emails sent from Box (noreply@box.com).

    The problem: An external collaborator says they did not receive an email notification for an uploaded/edited file. The external collaborator has the proper Box email notification settings but did not receive an email from Box.
    Currently, there is no way for us to know with certainty that the email left Box's email server OR if there was an issue trying to send to the external collaborator (e.g. collaborator email is blacklisted due to previous bounces).

    We can't help clients with issues on receipt of…

  11. Request for API Improvement (Folder Move API)

    In the folder move API, we would like you to add a function to set query parameters (force=true, etc.) to force execution.
    The intention is to be able to quickly and efficiently respond to the necessary operations in "exceptional cases" and "emergencies", ignoring the usual constraints,
    We request that it be introduced as a function in order to improve the efficiency of operational work by administrators.

  12. Custom Columns (with sort) for Users and Groups

    Custom Columns (with sort) for Users and Groups

    The current Admin console defaults to the below columns with no way to customize for better productivity:
    Name
    Email
    User ID
    Role
    Status
    Storage Used

    This request would allow the Main admin account to customize which columns are displayed while looking at your Users and Groups page. These custom column choices can be chosen from the custom Tags (which are already a feature). Allowing important information to be seen at a glance rather than having to go into each user to get additional pertinent information.
    Some examples of custom columns may be: …

  13. Issue with displaying list of invited collaborators

    Exposing the list of users collaborating on a folder to users from other companies could lead to a personal information leak. In the future, we would like to make the collaborator list invisible to users outside the company by default. We hope that this will be improved.

    フォルダにコラボレーションされたユーザー一覧が他社から見えてしまうと、個人情報漏えいに繋がります。
    将来的に、コラボレータ一の一覧が社外のユーザーからデフォルトで見えないようにしてほしいです。
    改善されることを期待しております。

  14. Super collections

    My workplace is too large to come up with reasonable startegies and Box is a bit chaotic. Collections and the My Collections view is a great way to keep my colleagues's work tidy, but it would be nice to have a hierarchy of collections and be able to have supercollections (i.e., collections of (super)collections).

  15. Show on Desktop Contextual Menu Option

    A number of users have suggested a feature that they very much enjoyed and used with Dropbox that allowed them to seamlessly work between Desktop & Web.

    The feature is 'Open location on Desktop', this would allow the user to find something in the web interface that offer all of the filtering of the web app to locate content, but to be able to simply open the location on the desktop (either via explorer on a PC or Finder on the Mac)

  16. About the expiration time of shared links

    I would like shared links to be processed at tenant set times.
    (For Japan: Links are processed when the date changes at 0:00)

    テナント設定時刻で共有リンクが処理されるようにしていただきたいです。
    (日本の場合:0:00の日付が変わるタイミングでリンクが処理される)

  17. Power consumption diagnosis/rehabilitation program

    The power consumption of the task manager is very high'' for theBOX'' process, and the PC is actually getting hot and the fan is running at high speed. I think it would be nice if there was a program that could diagnose and resolve the reason why the power consumption of the BOX is increasing. (You can also create and deploy a manual to reduce power consumption.)

    タスクマネージャの電力消費が’BOX’のプロセスにおいて、’非常に高い’となっており、実際にPCが高温となり、ファンも高速で回っております。BOXの電力消費が上がっている理由の診断、解消をしてくれるプログラムがあればいいなと思います。(電力消費を抑えるマニュアルの作成・展開でもよいです。)

  18. Incorrect unsuccessful SSO sign on message.

    My company uses Okta for SSO. I went to sign on at box.com. After entering my username, Google Authenticator token, and my password, I received an error message.
    "Single sign-on authentication was unsuccessful (reference #GMSOVUES). with a partner # and a Target resource (I have a screenshot).
    I typed "box.com" into the location bar to start the sign on process again. I entered my username. Boom, I was logged in. Thus, either the error message was incorrect, or Box has larger security problems.

  20. Updated retrieval of invitation logs from external tenants

    If you get a log by user name, you can see which tenant you received an invitation from, but if you set the acquisition target to an administrative group, you will not know which tenant you received the invitation from. Even if you designate a group, I want you to know where you received the invitation from.
