Editor Only Permissions Access
We are looking for a way to limit a user so she can not add new documents to a folder but is able to edit documents already in the folder.
The granular nature of your platform is so fantastic, and this nuance would make it even better. After all, just because I share a folder populated with documents that I want edited by other people doesn't not mean I want those same editors to bloat my folders with extraneous files.
There is strong use-case for this. Call it the Edit Only privilege.
0 votesThank you for the request! I believe this would add to the complexity of the product without providing wide enough benefit. I’m happy to review further use cases and demand in the comments.

Allow users to determine when task assignees are notified of assigned tasks today).
As opposed to non-configurable email reminder.

Ability to restrict Uploader permissions from being able to see file names in folders
We have folders where different companies can submit content via the Uploader collaborator permission. Because there are different companies submitting into the same folder, we do not want collaborators to see what others have uploaded.
This is not a virtual deal room/bid room in this specific case.
0 votesWe will not make a special collaborator role for this. Our recommended way of doing this would be to use the Upload Widget.

Restrict Co-owner's ability to invite additional Co-owners to a folder
Currently, once a user is granted co-owner permission to a folder, they gain the ability to grant the same permission to other users.
We would like an option that would only allow co-admins to grant permissions that are limited to editor and lower
0 votesI don’t think we would necessarily do this.
If you are a co-owner, we want you to be able to invite others up until your permission level.

This feature is not a priority at the moment given our roadmap commitments. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Ability to register any email alias which by API
Currently, we have to register subdomains to their Box instance before they register email alias by API, but it's troublesome. It's OK to register email alias by GUI.

Option to Designate Which Email Address (Primary vs. Alias) is Used for Box Email Notifications
Admin is SSO required and is unable to receive email notifications on their primary email address used for SSO.
Email notification in Box currently are not sent out to aliases.
However, when testing with the other email aliases for their company, the emails went through correctly.
The issue is that changing the Box primary email address requires changing the SSO primary email attribute which would break the login flow for other applications and programs.
We would like to have email notifications be able to be sent to these aliases.
We do not want to do the workaround of configuring their…

It would be great to get more insight into how you are thinking about this. For example:
- Who would revalidates the user?
- Does your company have an idea on how they’d like to revalidate users?
- How often?
- What is the current workaround (if any)?
- How does this impact your use of Box today? -
Individualized shared links
We'd like to be able to send customized links to specific individuals (e.g. company.box.com/JohnDoe) to know, even though they'd normally show as "Someone has Viewed your file", that it can be tracked back to being the particular person from that link.
We'd ideally like to send that same file to 5 different prospects with 5 customized links
0 votesGreat suggestion. This is not currently prioritized since it’s a narrower use case compared to the other items on our roadmap.

Custom Terms of Service: Add the 'Preview' Link/Option Again
In the Admin Console redesign, Box deprecated the 'Preview' option within the Custom Terms of Service settings.
This request is to bring that functionality back.
RATIONALE: Box supports adding HTML into the Terms of Service text, and there's no way (without a Preview link) to validate that the HTML renders correctly.
0 votesGood suggestion! This doesn’t rank high enough on our list of priorities, but we will re-evaluate with additional user demand.

Adding cc of invitation sender to Folder Invitation Emails
Request: Add the folder invitation sender as a cc to all folder invitation emails
Rationale: Primary need to ensure recipient is aware of the sending email which generally denotes the company. Right now, it only has the sender's first and last name which is highly arbitrary in many scenarios in inviting external users.
0 votesGood suggestion! This doesn’t rank high enough on our list of priorities for Web App, but we will re-evaluate with additional demand.

Save-As limits
Scenario:
Using Save As to convert a .csv to excel file.When saving to my local drive (even though it is in a Box Sync folder) I maintain the programmatic capability to save the file as a different file type.
When saving to Box (even though it is the same Box Operations folder) I lose the programmatic capability to save the file as a different file type.
I do file conversion in excel multiple times a week.

Provide support SentinelOne as an antivirus on Mac (already supported on Windows).
We are currently using SentinelOne as our corporate antivirus. Device Trust will recognize this as an Anti-virus when Box is used on Windows. However, Device Trust will not recognize the Mac version of the same software.
0 votesFor Windows, we can support any AV that Microsoft detects in Windows Security Center, which includes SentinelOne.
For Mac, developing checks for each vendor is a separate effort where we need to both discover a way to detect if a vendor is being used and also re-test and maintain this code.
Due to the resource-intensive nature, we will not be adding SentinelOne in the near future.
