  1. Run Platform Activity Report by Client ID or App Name

    Would like to run a Platform Activity Report by client ID or App Name specifically, as App ID is not always easily accessible.

  2. File and Folder report include number of file versions

    File and Folder report should include the number of versions associated with a file.

    We routinely receive questions from Box users about which files have version history associated with them and how much storage that version history is consuming.

    Today we need to open a case with Box Support to get this information but it would make this more self-service if the number of versions was included in the Admin File and Folder report.

    Even better would be if users could pull a File and Folder report for their own account and have that report include the # of file…

  3. Add User Groups as viewer to an Admin report

    When generating a report (such as collaborations report), I'd like to be able to add a user group as viewer in addition to being able to add a user account. We have decentralized content management, and doing so would allow be to schedule a monthly collaborations report shared to a user group with the content admins. I can't do so for a user, as there is a risk the users changes role and would not anymore be authorized to access the report.

  4. AI Units Usage Reporting

    When AI activity is included in a User Activity report, the number of AI units consumed should also be included. Another idea is to add an AI Units report that lists all activity that consumes AL Units.

  5. Need more explanation for "Unknown IP" on User Activity Report

    It would be helpful for the User Activity Report to show something like "Box internal IP" or "Legit IP" in the IP Address column when the IP falls into "Use Box’s internal IP address".

    Customers sometimes want to know the reason of "Unknown IP" description for their User Activity Report events.
    The article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/4415012490387-User-Activity-Report says "Unknown IP" is shown when the IP address falls into "Spoof an IP address", "Use a VPN proxy", or "Use Box’s internal IP address" situations.

    If it falls into "Use Box’s internal IP address" situation, customers do not have to worry about it because it…

  7. Request new report by file extension

    While you can check rough file types from the storage in admin insights, there are many situations in operations where you need to understand capacity and file counts at the extension level. I would like to request a report that can show file sizes by extension. I also want it to support filtering by owner.

    管理者インサイトのストレージから大まかなファイルタイプを確認できますが、運用では拡張子の粒度で容量や件数を把握したい場面が多くあります。拡張子ごとのファイルサイズを確認できるレポートの提供を希望します。所有者ごとのフィルタリングにも対応してほしいです。

  8. Request to add a function to select target items for output in the Shared Link Report

    In the current Shared Link Report filters, it is not possible to specify the targets of the output items, such as files, folders, or Hubs.
    Since all shared link information is output, there are many items, and extracting the necessary information takes a significant amount of time.

    To reduce operational workload when performing an inventory of Box Hub shared links, we would like the ability to limit the output items to Hubs only.
    Therefore, we request the addition of a feature in the Shared Link Report filters that allows users to select the target types of items to be included…

  9. Shared Links Report Enhancement - Report from a specified folder and below

    I would like a filter to be added to the Shared Links Report where you can specify a specific folder and the report will run with that folder as the top level and report on shared links for everything below that. This would run much faster than running the report for our entire tenant.

    We have much of our data owned by a "Project Account" so it is not controlled by a specific employee. Because of this, running the report with this user as the owner using the existing filter option is much the same as running a tenant-wide report.…

  10. Filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated in the user detail report.

    Content:
    Currently, the user detail report cannot filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated,
    and it is necessary to check while cross-referencing with the user list on the Users and Groups screen.
    Additionally, the unmanaged user list on the Users and Groups screen can take up to 24 hours to reflect changes,
    which may cause discrepancies with the information at the time of report output, reducing operational efficiency.
    I request the implementation of a feature that can filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated.

    タイトル: ユーザー詳細レポートで、コラボレーションされていない管理されていないユーザーをフィルタリングする。
    内容:
    現在のユーザーの詳細レポートでは、コラボレーションされていない管理対象ユーザーをフィルタできず、
    ユーザーとグループ画面のユーザー一覧と照らし合わせながら確認する必要があります。
    また、ユーザーとグループ画面の管理対象外ユーザー一覧は反映までに最大24時間かかるため、
    レポート出力時の情報と差異が発生する可能性があり、業務効率が低下します。
    コラボレーションされていない管理対象外ユーザーをフィルタできる機能実装を希望します。

  11. combine more external and managed user reports

    We need a way to combine managed user and external user reports into one to get the same information (where applicable) for each user type. It is ridiculous that we have to create multiple reports and then combine them to create composite reports for our whole enterprise.

  13. Add preset date ranges such as “Previous Month” when scheduling report generation

    When scheduling report generation, it would be very helpful to have an option to select “Previous Month” (from the 1st to the last day of the previous month) as a preset date range.
    It would also be useful to have additional preset options such as “Previous Year,” “Specific Month,” or “Specific Year” to easily configure commonly used reporting periods.

  14. Better Reporting Experience, Especially for Clients in Highly Regulated Environments

    In general, I think Box Reporting needs to be an area for improvement. There should be more options for reports and more filters and ways to manipulate the reports in Box.

    Something specific we would like to see is better reporting around Governance, especially with retention policies. We operate in a highly regulated environment where we needed detailed reporting around this information. There needs to be more granularity with reports, such as the Files and Folders report. We should be able to run a report that shows all root folders or be able to separate out folders and files. I've…

  15. Add further columns to Shared Links report

    In order to prepare a csv file to bulk update existing shared links, it is necessary to
    A) run TWO reports - a BOX USERS Report (CLI command), and a SHARED LINKS Report

    If however, you wish to provide a list of shared links to each Box user who created the link(s), then a THIRD report is needed, a USER ACTIVITY Report (for max years, Items Shared action). This report needs to be filtered to show only the latest date/user that created the link (NB a shared link may be created more than once)

    B) then the BOX USERS Report…

  16. User Activity Report needs ADDITIONAL default date filters

    To enable co-admins to schedule regular reports, additional default date filters are needed in the User Activity Report Date range selection. "Last 3 months", "Last 6 months" and "Year to date" would enable reports to be scheduled, rather than having to run the report manually because a Custom Range has to be selected for these periods

  17. Report output for file request links

    Currently, administrators can view a list of file request links on the file request dashboard, but there are limited filtering options.
    When a large number of file request links have been issued, it becomes difficult to find specific ones.
    We would like to search for file request link information through a report, so I request the implementation of a file request link report.

    (In Japanese)
    ファイルリクエストリンクのレポート出力

    現在、管理者であればファイルリクエストダッシュボードでファイルリクエストリンクの一覧を見ることができますが、フィルタリングの項目が少なく、ファイルリクエストリンクが多数発行されていると、任意のファイルリクエストリンクを探すことができません。

    ファイルリクエストリンクの情報をレポートで出力して探したいので、ファイルリクエストリンクレポートを実装してほしいです。

  18. Co-admin permissions : report role has too many rights

    If a user has only the report co-admin role ("Run new reports and access existing reports") to let him create reports for him, he can see other things in the admin console :
    - Insights
    - Content
    - Reports (OK)
    - Platform (with the Create Sandbox button !)

    Is it possible to secure this, so he can only see the Reports part ?
