  1. When Deleting managed users 'Notify User' should be unchecked by default

    When we delete managed users this screen pops up confirming our request with an option to Notify user. By default it is checked off.

    Can we change that in our enterprise settings so that is unchecked by default?

  2. Add permission that allows Group Admins to delete user accounts in their group and transfer content

    We want the option to give full granular account management capabilities to Group Admins, including the ability for Group Admins to delete an account or transfer data to another user.

    Without this, IT is still required to get involved for deprovisioning. They'd have the option to give this ability to Group Admins for their departments or groups as a granular permission

  3. Suppress Notifications - Expand Scope to Suppress In-App Entries in the Updates Feed & Access Stats (for DLP & CASB Integrations)

    Services (like DLP and CASB partners such as Netskope and Skyhigh) that use the Content API to scan Box content have the ability to suppress email notifications that would normally be generated for various activity (such as downloads, etc.). This is great as the activity from these services should be transparent and not exposed to the end user.

    However, the Suppress Notifications header currently only applies to suppressing email notifications -- these entries for activity from these API-based services still are exposed in-app to end users on the Updates feed and in other locations such as Access Stats.

    REQUEST: Expand…

  4. 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.

  5. Classification Reporting - Add Details of Classification Changes to Usage Logs

    Currently, when a file's Classification level is changed, a 'Metadata -> Edited Attributes' event is generated in Usage Logs. However, this event entry doesn't say WHAT changed (aka, it could be a Classification change, it could be any other metadata change - the admin can't tell).

    REQUEST: Add information to the 'Details' column of Usage Logs (and the Excel export / API event stream) about what Classification attributes (aka tell the admin what the Classification WAS, and what it is NOW).

  6. File name for Box Drive files is NOT displayed fully in File Explorer

    In order to expose the full file name the user must manually extend the file explorer in width.

  9. Easily identify folders owned by an individual user via Content Manager

    I have a need to determine what folders are owned by a certain person and wanted to know the easiest way to get that information. When viewing under Content Manager I see all the folders the person has access to but cannot filter it for the one she owns. I also tried running the Folders and Files report but am getting an error.

    For example, I need to look up all folders owned by one user in order to change them after a name change.

    This is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

    We are happy to reconsider with additional feedback.

    We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap, though we want to recognize that content sprawl is an issue and we are working to address it!  Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

  14. Show from when the lock has been applied.

    Users want to know from when a lock has been applied to a file in order to determine if it is okay to force unlock a file, some users may set a lock for a long time and forget to unlock. The current UI only shows until when the Lock will be applied.

  15. Ability to cancel upload and download errors and clean up list when there are errors

    When there are errors uploading or downloading files, I would like the ability to cancel the upload or download and clean up the error list. The only option now is currently to retry the update.

    This is a great idea! Unfortunately we aren’t able to prioritize this ask at this time due to other competing priorities.

  17. Restrict downloads from IE Browser

    Right now, any user can from IE browser right-click and download an image/video, even when the shared link or collaboration level through which they are previewing is restricting downloads

  18. Automatically Lock & Unlock when editing from Web App using Box Edit

    CURRENT UX: User must remember to manually lock and unlock each file once done editing, which is a subpar experience for the user.

    DESIRED UX: When using 'open with' via the webapp (Box Edit), the file is auto-locked (via a prompt), and when the user closes out of the file, it is automatically unlocked.

    We understand the request, but unfortunately this is not on the near-term roadmap. We are currently prioritizing automatically locking/unlocking files on Box Drive for Office files on Windows. We will revisit this feature in the future.

  19. API to managed IP whitelists for web and API traffic to Box

    As an admin, I can neither view or manage the IPs I've chosen to whitelist.
