  1. Ability to share Box Sign Templates

    I would like to be able to share a template in Box Signature that I've created. Currently, you can only use your own templates and all users need to create their own even if they're identical.

  2. Restrict what users can add the Box for Microsoft Teams Integration to a Channel

    We need the ability to limit what Microsoft Users can deploy the Box for Teams integration to a channel. At present the option is to have the integration enabled for all users (and therefore deployable by all users) or disabled for all. Our organisation requires more granularity on this to avoid inadvertent content sprawl etc.

  3. Batch send doc on business account subscription

    I would like to be able to send the same document to 19 different people for signature (e.g., company policies). I'd like to send in a batch format and then be able to track which I have received back / which I have not received. This is not currently available in the business account subscription plan.

  4. Add a home to the web UI

    Add Home to the menu in the Web UI above All Files and allow it to be the default we a user first logs in. It should be associated with what they set their home page to be (i.e. Favorites, Collections, etc.). When using a closed folder structure where users can't create files and folders on the All Files page it makes no sense to take them to this page by default because natural thought would be that they should be able to create on this page not need to navigate to another page.

  5. Customize "shared settings" notification

    Hi,

    Whenever I put a BOX link on slack, I always get the "shared settings" notification.

    "It says I can customize the sharing settings use the dropdown list. "

    But I just want to share the link, don't want to customize every time. Is it possible to set not to display this?

  7. Application exemptions from Anomalous Downloads rule

    When configuring Box Shield rules, the anomalous downloads rule seems to be missing the option to exclude application names. I would like to exclude a specific application from the anomalous downloads detection rule.

  8. Toggle the Activity bar or Side by Side off and On when using an IPAD.

    This is regarding the newest version of the IOS APP on an IPAD . When a user is using their IPAD as a laptop or in Landscape mode, the default is to have the Side by Side on. This shows a Blank Activities Pane. It would be great to only show the activities Pane if there are any notes. However the user should have the ability to toggle the bar, and regain the screen real estate.

  9. Box for Slack

    When sharing a file with Box for Slack, a pop "Do you want to share it?"

    Some files do not want to be easily collaborated. Therefore, not only "Do you want to share?" But also "Share" and "Do not share" should be selected.

    With choices, you don't accidentally collaborate on important files easily.

    Today, you can easily add previews of your desired file types (pdf, word, video, etc) by using the Embed button in the tool bar, or by selecting “Include Preview” when pasting a shared link in the Box Note.

  11. Allow multiple OAuth Reply URLs

    Currently, an application can only be defined with a single OAuth Reply URL. This is very restrictive for applications where multiple authentication endpoints are required.

    The workaround is to define multiple applications, but this doesn't scale well.

    In my experience, all other OAuth providers I've used allow for many URLs to be defined within a single application.

  17. Allow users the ability to make content (mostly video) available offline on the mobile app while also not allowing download permissions acro

    Allow users the ability to make content (mostly video) available offline on the mobile app while also not allowing download permissions across the browser, Drive, etc. Something similar to Netflix, which allows shows to be viewable offline on the app with no downloading on other devices.

    The reason for the use case is that executives will review confidential trailers on their phone/tablet. They need the ability to review the content even if the internet is spotty. But we need to restrict the ability to download a copy to prevent exfiltration of sensitive content.

  20. Able to get Box user ID by querying the username

    Hi, currently in order to find a box user id for ONE user, we need to use
    https://developer.box.com/reference#get-all-users-in-an-enterprise
    to get ALL users and then filter for the specific user.

    If would be nice if we can simply query a user's box user id by the username.

    There is an optional parameter called `filter_term` which can be used to retrieve a user on the basis of the name or login. See link below and a snippet from the dev docs.
    https://developer.box.com/reference/get-users/#param-filter_term

    `filter_term`
    Limits the results to only users who’s name or login start with the search term.

    For externally managed users, the search term needs to completely match the in order to find the user, and it will only return one user at a time.
