Increase minimum characters required for password
When making password requirement settings through the Admin Console security tab the range for minimum required characters only go up to 12. Can this be customised or increased to have more required characters than 12 up to 15?

Export all Collaborators on an item from Web UI
As an editor - when I go to a folder, I can see everyone collaborated into that folder.
On the right hand side, I can click on a user or on an icon that shows + x number people.When I do that it opens a page showing a table of users collaborated in.
Name/ Email address/ Permission / Date Added/ Added ToI would love a button to click which would simply export a .csv of that table.
Seems simple as that table is presented on the web page.
13 votesThanks for the suggestion! While I definitely see the usefulness of being able to export a report of collaborators on an item, we don’t plan to launch this feature in the near term as we’re focused on other various collaboration improvements.

Python example for "create upload session" is wrong
The Python sample for "Create upload session" seems wrong:
What you provided is:
filesize = 26000000
uploadsession = client.file('11111').createuploadsession(file_size)But it should be:
client.folder('11111').createuploadsession(filesize, filesize).Please check and confirm.

Enable version history disabling at the folder level
Our business requires the ability to disable version history for some clients who require that no past versions of files exist. We need the ability to disable versioning for part of the business, while retaining it for other parts. We can't be alone in this...

Need Box for Android link on downloads page
Please add a link to "Box Android" (https://lmu.app.box.com/services/box_for_android) to the Box downloads page (https://www.box.com/resources/downloads).
That's a great resources page that I use to share all the main Box apps that my user community should be using, but it is missing a link to Box for Android.
Thanks! :)

Add-ons tab and drawing ability
The one crucial thing is that people cannot today leave google docs or other Word editing software. Because the G-suite integration misses the add-ons tab. You can buy stuff via the add-ons tab in google drive, like icons and symbols. These cannot be used in the g suite integration.
Also the draw option is not available. I want to be able to draw tables and figures in my documents, i can't do that. So if im Writing in a document, at some Point i have to stop and refer back to google drive, which makes the whole idea of using…

Reporting for Former Employee(s)
I'd like to be able to run reports, like the failed login report, on former employee's deleted accounts. Once their account is deleted, they can no longer be searched so impossible to run a report on that group of individuals.

Tabbed mobile navigation
Currently, I cannot do meaningful work on the Box mobile app. It would be amazing if we could have tabs to enable the navigation within different folders/content at the same time. One tab could be a folder, another tab previewing a doc, another tab, editing a Box Note.

Updated MS Office Online Functions
We have the ability to use forms with Excel Online via Office 365, but if we choose to retain those items in Box, we lose all form functionality. We'd like to see an updated version of Office Online available in Box to support these features.

Geo-Restrictions
Would it possible to consider a geo-restriction setting so that an admin user has the option of restricting the location of collaborators and shared link recipients, to certain geographical locations.

Alert admin when users is reaching their allocated storage cap
When allocating a maximum storage amount to a given user it would be very useful to as an admin receive an email notification when the user is approaching their limit so that the admin can proactively increase the limit to decrease any disruption to their workflows.

Message on page timing out / becoming inactive
After a certain period of time with no activity, the Box web tabs in the browser become inactive / time out (but not the overall Box session). So users try to upload content or complete other actions but are not successful and don't find the reason why.
It would be good to add a message in the tab when this happens prompting users to refresh the page in order to keep working on that tab.

preset email address in the sign-in dialog in Windows
When using Box Drive on Windows, i would like you to preset email address in the sign-in dialog.
The email address can be get from the domain user's mail attribute.This is mandatory in environments where SSO is enabled/required.
In the case of Box webapp, the IdP's authentication screen opens just by pressing the continue button once.However, in the case of Box Drive, you need to enter an email address to open the IdP screen.
Also, IdP may ask you to enter email address again.The sequence of entering this email address hinders the user experience.

manage members
Under my organization we have a shared folder for over 1000+ members, but as you may know this is a global organization where we add or remove resources over the time. At this moment I can add them but I do not know how can I remove them. For this I will appreciate to have an option to export the list as CSV file, and as well an option to add or remove permissions in a bulk.
Thanks, My best regards!2 votes -
Access the Admin Console via the iPad application
Users with a co-admin or primary admin designation should be able to access the Admin Console when logged into the Box for iPad application (vs having to use the web browser)

Edit PDF's natively in iOS app and Save as Flattened PDF
We currently use onedrive only to edit PDF's via our ipad using the apple pencil. It would be great if we didn't have to do this in onedrive and could just use Box. Especially as Box is our cloud drive.
One step better than onedrive's features would be that after editing the PDF with the apple pencil, then have the ability to save the pdf as a flattened PDF file. This is a great feature for signing documents and would improve workflow greatly.
