Add browse permission level (i.e. read access to properties only, not to the content itself)
Scenario: A user can search a content/get recommendation to content he has no access to. Once the users knows that the content exists, he user can request access to it by asking the owner.
1 voteWe are not likely to implement this in our roadmap. We would like to understand the root problem before pursuing this implementation.

Provide API's to Shared Link Settings
A few business units feel very strongly that our configuration of defaults for Box accounts is not secure enough. They want the option for teams to opt in to a more securely provisioned account. As long as there are APIs for these account defaults and we are able to identify the users, we should be able to script it.

Provide a complementary Event in the Events API that a file has been successfully scanned for viruses
We would like to take an action on a file once it has been successfully scanned for viruses. The files are being uploaded from an external party through a white labeled application.
We understand we would get an event that a malicious file has been found. We would also like the opposite event that a file has been scanned and has not been found to be malicious via the API.
1 voteNot currently planned at this time.

Export Groups - Add an 'Export Groups' Button to Groups Summary Page & Individual Group Page
There is currently no way for admins to export a report (xlsx) of their Groups - whether at the summary Groups level or at the individual Group level
This is problematic for companies that have pages and pages of Groups in the Admin Console, or want to manage just one group (as the current Export Users report from the Users page - the only place any Group info IS currently exported - exports ALL users in an EID, which is overload).
REQUEST 1: Groups Summary Export - Desired Columns:
1 Row per Group / Mirror the Columns on the Groups…41 votesInteresting idea, but unlikely to be prioritized this year.

Allow change page size, change orientation, more fonts or font colors in Box Note
Adding more option to customize Box Note (font, format, orientation etc.) for better UX
6 votesWe intend Box Notes to be for casual documents. Meeting notes, project plans, etc.
It’s not intended for flyers, fancy collateral, perfectly formatted PDFs. For those, we still recommend a program like Microsoft Word.
We do not plan to add these types of things to Box Notes.

Report / Customizable dashboard for a workflow
I would like to get an overall view of my workflow and which files are at which stages, including:
- How many files are in Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, etc.
- How many files have completed
- How many files were denied (or stopped in process)32 votes -

Add 'trusted websites' to suppress the 'Leaving Box' interim step
When users click on a bookmark that takes them to an external website, there is an interim page that requires them to 'click continue' to verify they trust this website and are ok with 'Leaving Box'.
Request: Provide admins with the opportunity to input which websites allow their users to bypass this interim screen as a 'trusted' website.
1 voteThis interstitial (‘leaving Box’) page exists due to some requirements from our Security team.
Providing a whitelist for companies to use is not a feature that the Web App team will be prioritizing in the near future given other commitments.

Add Search Ability for Deleted Users
User requests to have a way to generate a usage report for users who have been deleted from an enterprise account. The do not wish to generate an entire usage & logs report for entire enterprise just to see deleted users.

Ability to import/export group information to edit
To edit group settings efficiently, it's helpful that Box Admin can import/export group information for bulk edit.
8 votesThere is a clear ask for bulk operations (edit/delete/add) for user management in the Admin Console, but we are currently focusing on making our user management pages and APIs scale and perform more quickly. While this is on our radar, we are not currently prioritizing this on our near term roadmap.

Expire all shared links at parent-level folder
Request the ability to expire all shared links generated within a parent folder on a selected date. Shared links should still be able to be generated independently on files, subfolders, etc. but have the ability to control & manage the expiration holistically at the parent level.
2 votesWe do not plan to implement this for the time being. We will reconsider with additional demand or use cases.

Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.

Auto-Created 'All Users' Group
Add the option to the Groups tab to have a 'smart' group that auto-adds all Managed Users - this is a commonly used practice to provide all users with a 'getting started' folder, but currently must be either managed manually or sent to Box via SAML (meaning the customer must keep the group updated in AD).
36 votesWe’ve been focusing on making the following improvement to Box Groups instead: allowing external users to be added to groups (https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778/suggestions/35982226) and using groups for granting access to apps and enterprise settings (https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778/suggestions/36670615).
