  1. We want users to be able to output a "folder and file" report for each folder.

    (Japanese follows English)
    Currently, only administrators can output the "Folders and Files" report.
    We would like users with editor permissions for the target folder to be able to output a "Folder and File" report for each folder.
    At that time, We would like to be able to select whether the report will be output to that folder or the output destination.

    現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートは管理者しか出力できません。
    対象のフォルダに対し編集者権限を持つユーザーが、フォルダ単位で「フォルダとファイル」レポートを
    出力できるようにしてほしいです。
    その際レポートの出力先はそのフォルダ内か、出力先を選択できると望ましいです。

  2. Please implement the ability for Admins to specify the folder to export to when exporting a report.

    In the course of our work, we sometimes share reports exported by Admin to users.
    Currently, this is handled by inviting users as viewers to the exported reports (folders).
    However, due to the need to share reports on a regular basis, a huge number of report folders are currently displayed on the user's "All Files" screen.
    These folders are expected to continue to grow, and users are already finding Box very difficult to use at this time.

    Please implement the ability for Admins to specify the folder to export to when exporting a report.

    業務の上で、管理者が出力したレポートをユーザーに共有することがあります。
    現在は出力されたレポート(フォルダ)にユーザーをビューアーとして招待して対応しています。
    しかし、定期的にレポートの共有が必要なため、現在は膨大な数のレポートフォルダがユーザーのすべてのファイル直下に表示されています。
    これらのフォルダはこのまま増え続ける見込みで、ユーザーは現時点で既にBoxを大変利用しづらい状況となっています。

    管理者がレポートを出力する際に、出力先フォルダを指定できるようにしてください。

  3. Option to exclude files from files and folders report

    Ability to exclude files in the files and folders report. This will reduce the excel file size and loading time. Allowing for faster data analysis.

  4. Ability to specify the destination folder for periodic output of Box reports

    We would like to be able to output Box reports periodically by specifying a folder.
    Currently, it is possible to output reports on a regular basis, but when providing them to users, it is necessary to manually move the output results, which takes a lot of man-hours.
    We would like to be able to fully automate this process, so we are making this request.

    ■日本語
    Boxレポートの定期出力をフォルダ指定で出力できるようにしてほしい。
    現在は、レポートを定期出力することは可能ですが、ユーザーに提供する場合は手動で出力結果を移動する必要があるため工数がかかってしまいます。
    完全自動化できるようにしたいため、リクエストします。

  5. heatmap

    Would love a heatmap report/feature that shows how often particular folders (or files) are accessed (over a specific timeframe). This way you could quickly identify folders/data you may not need to keep any longer. This would allow you to identify folders storing stale or useless data that could be cluttering up everyone's view. You could tie this into policies that could auto-delete/archive folders that have not been accessed within a certain time frame.

  6. Allow End Users to run a Collaborations Report for Content they Own

    As organizations scale, IT Admins may want to enable end users to manage their own content and who has access to this content. Users being able to run a collaborations report and/or a folder and files report on content that they own is important for enabling users to manage their own content collabs so that these responsibilities can be distributed, and don't necessarily fall solely on the admin and security teams who manage Box to audit content and associated collaborations. End users that own content should be empowered with all the tools necessary to manage who has access to content…

  7. Ability to distinguish logs with classification labels added or removed from the report.

    The logs of adding and deleting classification labels will be output from the User Activity Report as "Add Template" and "Delete Template".
    However, since the details are blank, it is not possible to determine from the user activity report whether the logs actually add or remove classification labels.
    Therefore, I would like to see the addition and deletion of classification labels added to the items as "Add Classification Label" and "Delete Classification Label" instead of "Add Template" and "Delete Template".
    If it is difficult, I would like to see it placed in the detail column so that we can distinguish…

  9. Allow reporting of user search activity

    Allow reporting of user search activity.

    We would like to get statistics on how many times a day users search on Box. 
    And what searched. who was search.
    This is currently not available in the User Activity Report.

    that research for user's searching demand is an important knowledge data for admin and usage development.

    Appreciate.

  10. About modifying storage values in the User Details report

    <About modifying storage values in the User Details report>
    Just like the storage value of Insights in the Admin console has been corrected, we request that the user details report will also be corrected to display more correct values.
    Due to the UI change, the Insights storage in the management console now displays a relatively correct value, but the user details report has not been corrected and is now showing a lower value.
    As a result, there is a difference between the storage value in Insights and the total storage value output in the user details report.

    <ユーザーの詳細レポートのストレージの値の修正について>
    管理コンソールのインサイトのストレージ値の修正がされたように、ユーザー詳細レポートもより正しい値が表示されるよう修正をお願いします。
    UI変更に伴い管理コンソールのインサイトのストレージは比較的正しい値が表示されるようになったが、ユーザーの詳細レポートでは修正されておらず少なく表示されています。…

  11. Ability to Name Scheduled Reports

    Add the ability to name the scheduled report. Currently the report is delivered as a csv file with the generic name of the report being run ie: "User Activity" and a date/time stamp. It would be very helpful to have the ability to type the name of the report so when it is delivered to me or my team the name is meaningful, and we readily know the content of the report. For example, if we have multiple reports scheduled, but they all arrive with the name "User Activity" we must open each one to determine what the content is…

  12. Schedule settings for all reports

    Currently, the following reports cannot be scheduled.
    ・Platform Activity
    ・Outbound Activity
    ・Security Logs
    ・Legal Holds
    ・Retention

    There are several types of reports that only the administrator can output, Since it takes time to output each report, automatic acquisition on a regular basis will improve operational efficiency.

    <すべてのレポートでスケジュール設定をできるようにする>
    現在以下のレポートではスケジュール設定することができません。
    ・Platform Activity
    ・外部のコラボレーション
    ・セキュリティログ
    ・リーガルホールド
    ・リテンション

    管理者しか出力できないレポートの種類が複数あり、各レポートの出力にも時間がかかるため、
    定期的に自動取得が行えれば業務効率化につながります。

  13. Actions to make documents and folders (box drive, 'Make Available Offline' ) appear in reports as Downloads - same as normal downloads

    When identifying anomolous downloads (ie potential data leakage), we utilise both Box Shield alerts and User Activity reports to establish details.

    However, User Activity reports (csv, column E 'Action') do not differentiate between those documents and folders downloaded, and those that are 'Made Available Offline'. When attempting to avoid data leakage, the difference is important. Making content available offline is a legitimate task for users. However, large quantities of normal downloads may indicate fraudulent theft of data.

    We need to be able to differentiate between the two types, as soon as possible

    Because User Activity Reports record items as 'Download'…

  14. Detailed reports on the number of API calls

    The API has a rate limit, and an error will occur if it is exceeded.
    This time, an error occurred because the number of API calls exceeded the rate limit.
    We would like to launch apps during times when the number of API calls is low, but at this time there is no way to check the number of API calls in a time range.

    Please implement a report that allows us to see which apps are making API calls, at what time of day, and to what extent.

    <APIコール数に関する詳細なレポート>

    APIにはレート制限があり、それを超えるとエラーが発生します。
    今回はAPIコール数がレート制限を超えたため、エラーが発生していました。
    APIコール数が少ない時間帯にアプリを起動したいのですが、現時点では時間帯のAPIコール数を確認する方法がありません。

    どのアプリが、どの時間帯に、どの程度APIコールを行っているかを確認できるレポートを実装してください。

  16. Add more detail to Box Admin Report folder descriptions

    Background:In the headers of folders created by Box when Box Admin Reports are run, there is "Folder description". This gives various details associated with the report, including:
    Status, Report type, Run on, Date range

    Enhancement Required and Reason:
    When there are so many reports being run during the day, and having to wait for them to complete, it would be helpful to add further metadata:
    - Users or groups - any and all selected during report preparation
    - Affected folders and files - any and all selected during report preparation

  17. Add date and time of application of classification labels to the Classification Report

    The current classification report lists which content is assigned which classification label, but does not show the date and time the label was applied or the user who applied the label.
    The date of application and the user who applied the label are displayed in the folder/file details, but this is only the case when the classification label is applied manually.

    We would like to add an item to the classification report because it is expected to take time to investigate the cause when a classification label is unintentionally changed, and there is a security risk such as information leakage…

  19. extract report on tag

    I would like to extract a report to see what kind of tags are attached to each item.
    We would like to do this because we are planning to monitor the access of each document by categorizing each document into different tags like "Production innovation", "quality assurance", "inventory reduction", "productivity improvement", "design enhancement".

  20. Improve on Download log in the Activity Log

    Currently when trying to access to a file that does not have a collaboration right, it is registered as download in the activity report.
    I have heard the support team that this is expected behaviour due to the backend work to read the thumbnail.
    However, when looking at the activity log, it looks like a user has "downloaded" that file even though they do not have access to it so would like the report to not show "download" but something else to know that the user hasn't actually downloaded that file.
