Confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity
When users copy (Ctrl+C) files on Box Drive, and then paste (Ctrl+V) the files on their desktops, it is almost doing the same thing as "Downloading" or "Copying."
However, neither the above are recorded in User Activity.
We would like to be able to confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity.

I now understand that this apparent flaw in User Activity Reports, was only due to DELAY in information appearing in the reports.
When Box Drive is used to Ctrl C and Ctrl V content - either Box folder to Box folder, or Box folder to desktop, the activity will appear almost immediately if VIEW is selected whilst creating a UAR.
If the UAR is RUN, there is a 24 hour delay before the actions will appear on UAR - so the UAR should NOT be run until 24 hours after the activity has taken place
