Groups with external users: Allow external email addresses to be added to a group
Groups with external users: Allow external email addresses to be added to a group, making it easier to invite external agencies and grant them access to files. The goal would be to create a group for users from the same agency, including users with free Box accounts.

Users and Groups - Move "More Options" [...] Menu to Left-Hand Side of Page
Admins regularly take repeated actions in the Users and Groups tab of the Admin Console - specifically Log in as User, and Add User to Groups. If the menu could be close to the user's name, this would make manual processing much easier for admins.

I would like the number of managed users to be displayed in real time.
Regarding counting managed users in Admin Console > Users & Groups, the current design has a delay of one or few hours before accurate number is reflected.
While we can use reports to see the exact number of users, it would be better to be able to see the number immediately after adding or removing users more intuitively.7 votes -

Using public Beta for Folder Insights with Editor permissions
Most users who need Folder Insights are editors.
Also, invitations are often restricted for security reasons.
I would like to see Folder Insights and reports downloadable even for invite-restricted editors.-in Japanese-

Real-time visibility of whether a user has external collaborations ユーザーが外部コラボレーションを行っているかをリアルタイムで確認する機能
・Problem Statement / 課題
In the legacy Content Manager, an admin could see — in real time — that a managed user had a folder collaborated with an external party, along with the owner name. This was used as a pre-check before deleting/offboarding the user. The new Content Manager no longer surfaces external folders, so this real-time check is no longer possible through the UI.
レガシーContent Managerでは、管理者は対象ユーザーが外部とコラボレーションしているフォルダの存在と所有者名を、リアルタイムで確認できました。これはユーザーの削除/オフボーディング前の事前チェックとして使われていました。新Content Managerでは外部フォルダが表示されなくなったため、このリアルタイム確認がUI上で行えなくなっています。
Note: This request is not specifically about Content Manager. The legacy CM simply happened to be where this was possible. We are requesting the capability (real-time admin-side visibility of a user's external…1 vote -
Large Folder Operations dashboard with status, ETA, rollback, and reporting
Requesting a centralized Large Folder Operations Dashboard in the Box Admin Console or via API to improve visibility and control over major content transfers.
During a large folder ownership change, an unexpected behavior occurred where ownership polling and job sequencing did not reflect the actual state of completion. This led to a move propagating recursively from an empty child folder to an inherited, multi-million-object parent folder.
A built-in dashboard would provide transparency into large operations and prevent this class of issue from occurring silently.
Proposed Capabilities
-Status Tracking — show all active or queued large folder transfers (ownership, move, or…

Delete User App Authorization
It would be nice to delete User App Authorization from the Admin Console. While Server App Authorization can be deleted by contacting support, User App Auth cannot.
Disabling auth is a good temporary workaround, but when there are many user app auths it can get cluttered and difficult to manage.

Report on file insights for all files
Currently you can only view file insights on an individual file, from the file details. I need the ability to view file insights for all files, in a single report.
Add a reporting feature in the admin console for file insights, where fields can be selected to be included in the report or not: People, Previews, Views, Downloads, Comments, Edits, Last Viewed Date, etc. And a File insights report is generated for ALL files in Box.
Having insights on individual files only makes it unfeasible to measure file utilization across the repo, at scale. How can we measure which files…1 vote -
Clarification needed for “Invite Collaborator” event behavior in User Activity Report ユーザーアクティビティレポートにおける「コラボレータの招待」イベント仕様の明確化について
【Description】
In the User Activity Report, there is an inconsistency between “Invite Collaborator” and “Accepted Invite” events.
Specifically, the “Invite Collaborator” event is not logged in the following cases:When the invited user has “Automatically accept collaboration invites” enabled
When a group is invitedAs a result, there is a significant discrepancy between the number of “Invite Collaborator” and “Accepted Invite” events, even though these actions are part of the same collaboration flow.
Currently, this behavior is not clearly documented in the official Box support article, and it is difficult to understand the limitations of the “Invite Collaborator” event.

I would like to be able to adjust the width of items and reorder them on the report status screen.
When checking the report status screen, the author's name and report type are omitted, which is inconvenient. I would like it to allow changing the display width of items to make it easier to check. Also, I want a feature that lets you click on item names to sort items other than the last update date.

Ability to Reassign Group Admin Permissions En Masse
Via the GUI, it would be great to be able to reassign group admin permissions to a user for multiple groups in bulk. Use case is one user is admin for many internal groups, they leave the org, and their admin role requires replacement.

The upper limit on the number of file requests that can be "bulk deleted"
Due to Box's specifications, you can delete file requests all at once using the following steps.
However, if you try to delete nearly 1,000 file requests, you'll receive the error message "Failed to delete link." The following steps prevent you from deleting them.[Admin Console > Content > File Requests > Select multiple file requests > Click the trash can icon that appears]
For security reasons, we need to periodically delete large numbers of file requests to prevent unnecessary requests from being available for a long period of time.
However, currently, the only way to delete nearly 1,000 file requests…8 votes -

Admin Console - Pending Users
It would be nice if we there was a tab that showed Pending Collaborations and a way to filter by email address. We recently had the need to remove five email addresses from all folders they were invited to, but we had to choose to either traverse hundreds of folders or delete the main folders that we knew they were in.
Additionally, this could also be something offered via the API, perhaps the request can require the user email address and what collaboration state(s) you want returned. That way we could have easily specified an email address and pending, received…

Ability to change delete and transfer folder description
Currently, after a user is deleted and their content is transferred, the folder their content is transferred to has a Folder Description that reads: "This folder contains files previously owned by <user>, and were transferred to you by your enterprise administrator. If you have any questions, please contact <Name and Email Address of Enterprise Admin>."
Since many large customers don't have a single user monitoring the enterprise Admin email, it would make more sense for them to be able to edit this description to include their internal support helpdesk email alias instead of the primary admin

Improve external users admin page
We're constantly adding and removing external users, and the list can get quite long. Unfortunately, the columns are not sortable - or expandable. This seems like an easy win!
