Live update of comments while in preview mode
We'd like to have comments from other users automatically post & update real time for other collaborators who have the document open in Preview to see. Currently users have to refresh the screen or exit and re-enter the file to see a new comment if they are already in Preview mode

Open Shared Link Controls: Prevent Open Shared Folder Links without Disabling Company Folder Shared Links
Right now you can't disable Open folder links without disabling Company folder links. The native Box setting for this is too restrictive (prevents sharing folders internally other than via collaboration).
18 votesWe are currently focussed on bulk operations with managing Shared links.

Add "additional_details" to events endpoint for MOVE, COPY, RENAME events
Presently, security & events reports run from the admin console include "change details" for these events - essentially, what the prior state was before the event occurred. The events endpoint does not include these details.
Request to add this to the additional_details of an event as it's reported through the admin events stream for the MOVE, COPY, and RENAME events.
If RENAME, show previous name of the folder
If MOVE/COPY, show previous parent of the folder10 votes -
Receive notification when transfer of content is completed
When deleting and transferring content to another user and an error is thrown, it is not clear to the user when all the content has successfully been moved due to the error message thrown.
We would like to know when all the content has finally completed so we can delete the user without any concerns.

Add a warning when an admin tries to change their subdomain in the admin console
It will break all existing shared links unless admins have the "spoofing" setting enabled. By association, embedded content will stop working too.
The request is to add sufficient warning.

Option to request access to a folder
Request: If an external or internal user is forwarded a Box folder invite and they are not a current collaborator, they should have a mechanism to request the access and such request should automatically go to folder Owner/Co-owner for approval or decline. This should be done in a way that does not display or communicate the folder owners name.
Rationale: We have many external users that are part of large teams. Adding all (and maintaining) in the team is not feasible. These external users often forward the folder invites.
40 votesI would like to understand the use case better. Is the folder being shared externally using the shared link feature?

Set an expiration date on collaborations in a folder
Similar to how shared links can expire.

Enable API apps for select users
Right now, we can disable published APIs for all users, or enable them - we'd like the ability to restrictively enable.
3 votesWe currently do not plan to selectively enable or disable access to the Box API for specific users within an enterprise.

Shared Link Lookup Tool
Problem: Admins often need to do investigation of files stored in Box and all they have to go off of is the file/folder's shared link. Since admins can't search by shared link in the current Content Manager UI, a Shared Link Lookup tool would provide similar information.
Key Features:
-Provide ability to enter a shared link (standard or vanity URL)
-Information returned after searching:
-File/folder name
-File/folder owner
-File/folder location (Owner -> Folder hierarchy)
-Status (whether the file/folder has been deleted or not)
-Admin-level 'delete' (ability for the admin to delete the file on the spot)53 votesThank you for your input. This idea is considered for future roadmap. Please reach out to me if you like to share your use case.

Option to Show Full Folder Hierarchy when Added Only to Subfolder
Right now, when collaborators are added to a folder, they are not able to see the folder hierarchy that is above the level at which they were added. This is great in many situations.
However, there are various scenarios where customers would like users to have the 'full view' of the folder hierarchy above.

Ability to set external password requirements
We would like to be able to set the requirements for the password required to log in to FTP and WebDAV
1 voteThank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

Allow library of blank forms in Box to be used with DocuSign
Box's implementation of the connector for DocuSign still does not accommodate a our desire to create a library of blank forms hosted in a Box folder that can be used with DocuSign.
Under the current implementation, completed DocuSign files are redeposited back into the originating Box folder thus polluting the library with non-blank documents.
1 voteThe near-term priority for DocuSign integration is focused around implementing it onto App Activity Stream.

Admin Trash -- Include Items in 'Trash' when using Search in Content Manager from the Admin Console
Search in the Content Manager does not currently include items in Trash. This is a security/eDiscovery challenge currently.

This is not on the roadmap for 2019, but is a great suggestion that we may look into in the future.

The Ability to Search for Users by Secondary Email Address
In the Admin Console, there is currently no way to search for users by their secondary email address.
When the Admin goes to create a new user with an email address that is already in use by an existing account, they have no way of seeing who is using the email address without checking their users' account details individually.
4 votesThis suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the current experience to manage users in the Admin Console before we add enhancements to search.

Recent changes should have made the start-up process quicker for returning users and for new users.
