Better detailed logging for iOS app that's available to customers for troubleshooting.
Would like an advanced logging that can be initiated on the iOS Box for EMM app to help capture why uploads fail. It is surprising that there is no “verbose” logging available for the iOS app.

Box for Office integration with Mac OSX
We would like Box for Office desktop integration w/Mac OSX. Some use the web apps for o365. Some use Office 2016 for mac that connects into o365.
38 votesThe Box for Office integration is not available on Mac due to technical limitations, but we do already support a native Mac Outlook integration with Box: https://community.box.com/t5/Box-for-Outlook/Installing-Enabling-and-Disabling-Box-for-Outlook/ta-p/66374

Custom Terms of Service - Archive of Previous ToS Text
Currently, when changes are made to the text in an existing custom ToS, Box does not save the original text that was signed off by previous users. Only the most up to date version of the text will be available in Box. I would like to request that, for compliance reasons, there's an archive of previous ToS available so it is clear which specific language each user has signed off on.
1 voteWe don’t have immediate plans to address TOS. We’ll want to see other feedback related TOS before determining if it makes sense to revisit.

[android] Detailed information in transfers tab
In transfers tab, can we get information for:
- past uploads (eg last day)
- failed uploads (all, until successful)
- queued, pending transfers.This, mostly gives more detailed visibility for status on auto-upload settings - currently to verify if new files from auto-upload directory was synced,m we need manually check target directory and this can be tedious.
This should be extended to also manual transfers.

[android] mutiple directory sync
Hello,
in mobile app , can we have option to have multiple from-to pairs of folder to sync instead only one?
Eg. I'd like to have sync from/to mobile
- documents,
- photos
- music
- exported data from app 1
- backup from app 2
- etc
all of those are in different places on mobile device and they will go to different places on box.If you want, can you check nextcloud android app (auto upload section) for inspiration.

Ability to login as a Co-Admin to users' accounts
Would like the ability to login as a Co-Admin to users’ accounts, even if those users still have not reset their password, without getting prompted to reset the password for that user. The Primary Admin does not get prompted to reset users’ passwords upon instant login, even if the end user is still required to reset their own password.

Submitting a Support Ticket
When submitting a ticket with the support site, add the option to submit a ticket specifically for issues with the support site itself. It's possible to classify tickets this way on our end, but not on the user's apparently.

Add native search functionality to CSV or text files from within the web app
The Box web app does not currently have native search functionality for CSV or text files. The browser find bar fails because the system hides information that's not visible.
Can this functionality be added so that I'm not forced to re-download files to simply search them?

Fix iOS Microsoft Office Security - No Pin Required
If you have Box Mobile App installed and a Pin is enforced, your data is protected by pin every time you launch the app. If you install iOS Excel or Word and then sign into the application/authorize, anytime you launch word or Excel you are not prompted to sign in again and there is no passcode enforced on either of those apps. They have full access to all documents in your Box account. Box Device Trust and EMM will not enforce or protect this either and is easily bypassed since this is an Application Integration, you don't even need Box…
4 votesBox cannot enforce pin codes on third-party apps.

Ability to block external invitations for collaboration
We don't want users accepting any external invites to external company shares but we want them to be able to share folders with any company. Basically, we only ever want to be the folder owner.
We have a rule that only we can create the folders and share them out but this sometimes is accidentally overlooked. In addition, Box does not have an option to "block outside collaborator invitations" only an option to completely turn off inbound/outbound sharing or white list domains.

API to sync folders for users.
If we could sync folders directly through our internal web app it would cut several steps out of user workflows. I would love to put a sync slider next to the job line so they could sync directly from this screen.
Specifically, I am talking about leveraging the tools via APIs. So having an API we could leverage to sync folders down for users.
4 votesThis request cannot practically be implemented as an API. A client needs to control the state of local items on an endpoint such as a user’s computer, much like the Box Drive or Box Mobile clients do today. The only planned supported means for such synchronization capabilities are the Box Drive and Mobile clients.

Additional approval for large delete actions
We'd like the ability to add an optional multi factor authentication or admin approval while deleting files or folders above some specific amount data e.g 50 GB.
4 votesThank you for the suggestion! At the moment there is no plan for this feature. We may look into this in the future.

Customize watermark to include version, update date
I’d like to use the watermark or a similar feature to print the Version Number and Last Update Date on PowerPoint and PDF files. I understand you can view this in Version History, but I’d like to see it super-imposed on the content.

Additional skill triggers
Currently when a file is uploaded in box it will trigger skills that have been registered to the folder (or parent folder). For more complex skill interactions where multiple skills are registered to the same folder, it would be ideal if there were additional triggers like a trigger for a file being viewed, or a trigger for metadata being updated.

Icon or Warning Message to display when MFO using Box Drive would be helpful to collaborators
Is there a way for an icon or warning message to display when users mark a folder for offline use or when a file is marked for offline use? This would really help since multiple people might be viewing and editing the same file and if someone is already working on it offline, then we wouldn’t want to make changes and override it.
