  2. Custom 401 error message for unauthenticated users

    I need to have a custom message shown to unauthenticated users which will show them how to gain access. How can I create this page, or create a redirect to a custom page so my users don't see the ugly error message.

  3. Mask tenant ID

    We're concerned that the full tenant ID is showing in the admin console and could be compromised if the account has been compromised. We'd like to somehow hide/mask some part of the tenant ID like how a credit card appears (as an example) in any system where only last 4 digits are being shown.

  4. Serial skill execution

    Currently box executes all registered skills in parallel. In some cases it would be usefull to have the results of one skill feed another. This would require an order to be associated to registered skills, and a mechanism for signaling completion (which should not be metadata being written since there are cases where no new metadata updates occur or there is an error in execution)

  8. SSO for Salesforce Community for Box free External Collaborator License

    We have a growing Salesforce Community. Some have their own Box accounts; others do not and are provided with Box free External Collaborator license. However we want to implement Box for Salesforce Community for all our users. Currently we can not implement SSO with free External Collaborators.

  11. Allow 'show folder' button when multiple items are moved/copied

    Multiple items are always moved/copied to the same location, therefore a user should be able to navigate to where those items were moved as you can with single file moves/copies.

  12. Consistent Search behavior between drive and webapp

    Both the webapp search and Box Drive search call the same search API, but the ordering returned by the API is different, possibly because the API takes the requesting client (webapp or desktop) into account. This is a request for consistent behavior between desktop and webapp

  14. Favorite a Note as a non-collaborator

    I most often see this when there is a company-wide Note that I can edit but not Favorite because I have not explicitly been collaborated in, which is a confusing experience.

  15. Custom text in password entry screen on password protected links

    Allow users to customize the text that displays when a user is prompted to enter a password when accessing a password protected shared link. The text currently says "The content you are attempting to access is password protected. To continue, enter the password below." It would be helpful to enter custom text like "By entering the password below you agree to the following terms of use: " so that we could ensure that users are reading and agreeing to a confidentiality agreement every time they access the file.

  17. Groups cannot be collaborated via API without Manage groups scope

    Users cannot add groups to folders via the API like they can in the UI without special 'manage groups' scope, which is essentially an admin scope. One direct impact with this is that it prevents our mobile app from having invite parity with our web app,

  18. Update Shared Link Reports to Stop Security Flaw

    Whilst I see this issue was raised a few years ago, I wanted to separately address this.

    Currently, from discussions resulting from a support case ticket, when I send a shared link email, there doesn't appear to be a shared link report that includes critical details such as the date the shared link was sent together with at least the email address of the recipient.

    The shared link report under User Activities only appears to show actions by the owner of the link and no details of the recipient (i.e. download/access details).

    As it appears there is no way that…

  20. Improve way to update lock status of a file

    When a file is locked by a user in Box Drive, users who are looking at the same file at that time via web browser will not noticed the file is locked until they refresh the page. We would like to have the lock status updated in a more dynamic manner without the need for a page refresh
