Metadata Instance Update - Remove when no value should not fail
When Updating a metadata instance to remove a value from a specific instance, currently today the API fails if the field has no value.
I would like to propose that if the field had a value it is removed, and if it doesn't - then just ignore the operation. Similar to what add does if the field already has a value, it just silently replaces it.
As an option, in case others are relying on the failure, maybe add a new operation "forceRemove" so that if there is no value, the code will just ignore it and continue with the…

Applying Salesforce Data to a document (file) request that comes back as metadata on the document
It would be great if the Box Salesforce integration has a feature wherein it will allow metadata fields of Box files take on the data of fields from records (e.g. Account/Contact) in Salesforce. When the file is uploaded, it will have the associated metadata that relates back to the account.
Searching the community forums, I could not find any post related to this requirement (the only one that was similar was from 5 yrs back and has no responses .

Box Embed - prevent users from navigating outside the assigned folder
If a user is assigned to the following folders e.g. All Files > Cases > Case 1.
Currently, Box Embed Breadcrumbs allow users to navigate all the way up to the All Files.
We want the users to only be able to navigate only within Case 1 folder and not explore outside Case 1. This is useful to prevent users placing content outside Case 1 when embedded inside a case management application e.g. Appian, Salesforce, etc.

Save Collaboration Invite
I included an email address in my invite message, so the invite was not sent and I got the error, "Collaboration invite was not sent because URLs are not supported in the invite message."
I had dozens of invitees and a fairly long invite message, so it was aggravating when the invite was not saved for me to edit (remove the email in the message) and retry.

Restructure API endpoints to only use one base URL
We're currently pushing documents from a different system through your APIs using an integration platform.
Here we are uploading files and then assigning metadata templates to them for later use in searches and checking for versions, etc.The integration platform vendor is taking pay through every baseline URL we add to the system as a connector and then allowing us to basically have as many connections to the same system as we want using that base URL. This is relevant to our challenge.
When utilizing the Box API, the base URL (based on the documentation I've found) for uploading documents…

Multiple IDP Support for Login
While Box Supports Multiple IDP connections to a single tenant, it is not possible without the tenant to provide a landing page for login. This is something that multiple other providers already support, and asking the customer to supply their own login page to access Box from multiple IDPs hurts both Box and the customer.
This hurts Box because instead of creating managed and secure users, I now need to juggle 3rd party users and treat them as guests rather than full users. ($)
This hurts customers by not allowing us to administer policies easily for end users as a…

Ability to schedule Platform Activity Report
Ability to schedule Platform Activity Report so that admin can monitor API usage on a regular basis. Additional filters for that report in the console will also be helpful. At the moment, admin has to open the report in Excel and do manual filtering.

Remove an invited collaborator's access on a per folder level
There are use cases where the content owners/co-owners would like the ability to remove an (external) collaborator's access to a folder on a specific date. Understanding that this can be configured at a global level (by setting timeframe), it would be helpful to have this on a per folder level as well.
This would be beneficial as various departments/users share data of varying sensitivity and in various use cases (such as sharing with an external contractor whose contract is for X months).

Box Legal Hold Export API
The current Box Legal Hold Exports function becomes difficult to manage at scale. The export process itself generates "batch" zip files that need to be manually downloaded via the user interface. Because the zip files are limited to 5,000 files or aprox 16 GB, I have one user to export who has over 500 "batch" zip files to download. The API does not support directly downloading these batch files. A way to bulk download or programmatically download these batch files is essential when exporting a very large (either in pure storage size or in number of files) user hold.

Create Relay to Connect to Users Table
The only way to view the number of user licenses consumed is to view the Insights in the Admin Console. Unless you look there, there's no visibility. When I approach my purchased license limit, I would like to build a Relay that can tap into the users table to monitor the number of licenses then alert me when that limit is approaching.

Request for the ability to not display specific folders in BoxDrive
BoxDrive is very convenient because it can be used as an explorer, but due to user operational error
folders or files may be moved to unintended folders.
Folders to be collaborated outside the company can lead to information leakage,
We request for improve that specific folders can only be operated and viewed with the Box Web Browser.(Japanese)
BoxDriveはエクスプローラとして使えるので利便性が高いが、ユーザーの操作ミスにより

Added a function to delete all at once in the capture history.
If it can clear local storage without logout, Box capture will be easier to use.

Disabling shared links after the link is viewed
Currently there is the option have the shared link expire on a specific date. It would be beneficial to also have a shared link be disabled as soon as it is viewed. Having a link that's "one-time use only" would be ideal in various use cases like sharing sensitive information.
Having this also be the case for invited external parties would be helpful.

Customizable webapp columns such as folder owner
It would be nice for users to be able to customize the columns they see in the webapp. Particularly being able to add a 'Folder Owner' column like OneDrive has. Similar to the way you can go from grid to list view, but add a column between Name and Updated for Folder Owner.

Allow setting passwords on folders
Setting passwords on files is good, but we should be able to set passwords on folders (at any level of a folder structure). The ability to set passwords on folders should be limited to owners and co-owners.
