Bulk edit folder settings in the admin console
Grant the ability to bulk edit folder settings in the Admin Console. We recently made changes to our Enterprise folder settings. Updating these settings was not completely retroactive and did not propagate for all subfolders, resulting in either having to update folders individually or using the API. We would like the ability to have a feature for bulk editing folder settings natively in the Admin Console that can be retroactive and will propagate to subfolders.

No "print" option like in Box Notes
There's no way to export or print the Canvas. This ability exists in Miro, so if Canvas were to offer this, we could likely cut out our Miro licenses. This ability exists today in Box Notes, so it would make sense for it to be available in Canvas as well.

Enable option to turn on Optimal Character Recognition (OCR) for all documents
Enable option to turn on Optimal Character Recognition (OCR) for all documents.
This is important for Search and Data Leakage Prevention (DLP)/Ethical Walls.
E.g. a Driver's License, Passport, etc. image gets uploaded, then Box DLP doesn't recognize this today.

Locating who/when files are Moved/Removed (accidentally or on purpose)
If a user moves/renames/removes files, the URLs shouldn't simply be dead links now. Please record information so that impacted users know When the file was moved/removed, and WHO did the action.
I recently had Box Notes and Folders get moved or removed. And while I know who SHOULD have been the owner of the content, anyone else having problems finding the content wouldn't know who to contact.
So if a box link was previously valid, and that content has moved or removed, leaving some breadcrumb for the user, about who to contact, when the content was moved/removed, etc, can help users to find the content again.UPDATE: The owner moved the content, and changed the access list. So in the end, the URL Was still correct, but my access had been removed. Either way, other people having an access issue wouldn't have known who to contact.

hidden files
We use Box Drive for Backup purposes (company policy dos not allow any other product for that purpose). Would be great to have a possibility to upload also the hidden config files which are marked with a dot in front of the filename (e.g. .abc-config) using macbook.

Show all uncompleted tasks on iPad
Currently you can only check up to 20 tasks in the Box iPad app.
However, when you are high up in the company, there are many tasks sent to you throughout the day and cannot see all the uncompleted tasks inside iPad.It would be great if you can increase the numbers of tasks shown or show all the uncompleted tasks on iPad too.

The login page I land on does not have an SSO option.
There is no SSO login button on the login page that I land on when sent there from a SLACK link.
Every login page, no matter how I am sent to it, should have identical functionality! Basic coding practice says a feature should be implemented once, and used everywhere. I need to login with SSO. I need the SSO login button on EVERY login page I may be presented.
As a WORKAROUND, I need to remember I need to use SSO, then manually go to another random login page and use the SSO there to get a token .1 vote -

If a user's email address is changed on the management console, please write the changed address.
Currently, when a user's primary email address is changed on the admin console, it is reported as an "Edit User" item in the "User Activity Report." However,
it is not possible to determine whether the "Edit user" item refers to a change in the primary email address just from the display on the report,
so it is necessary to check the email address change notification date and time each time. Please add an item to the "User Activity Report" when you enter your email address on the management console,
or I would like the functionality to be improved so that the "Details" section of the "Edit User" item includes information indicating that the primary email address has been changed.(日本語)
現在、管理コンソール上でユーザーのプライマリメールアドレスを変更を行った際は「ユーザーアクティビティレポート」の「ユーザーの編集」項目として記載されます。
しかしレポート上の表示のみでは「ユーザーの編集」項目がプライマリメールアドレスの変更を指しているのか判断できずメールアドレス変更通知日時を都度確認する必要があります。
「ユーザーアクティビティレポート」に管理コンソール上でメールアドレスを行った際の項目を追加頂くか、
「ユーザーの編集」項目の「詳細」にプライマリメールアドレスを変更した事がわかる内容を記載されるよう機能改善を希望します。Currently, when a user's primary email address is changed on the admin console, it is reported as an "Edit User" item in the "User Activity Report." However,

Boolean search function to be applicable to tags
Would love to use my Box as a Digital Asset Manager but the tag system really needs a boolean search function.
Boolean searching is used to help find search results faster and with more precision. Boolean searching uses operators: words like AND, OR, and NOT.
We might have to take pour storage else where due the cost of having both a Box account and a DAM.

(API) Add 'can_change_expiration' to the {file|folder}.permissions
We are publishing a 3rd-party app for Box.
A setting has been added to prevent users from changing the expiration date of shared links.
When this setting is enabled, sending POST of JSON containing 'sharedlink.unsharedat' will return a 400 Bad Request error
Please add a 'canchangeexpiration' value to the permissions attribute of the file/folder object so that the correct POST requests parameter can be specified.1 vote -

Relay workflow to get deleted or transfer to Box admin when the user is deleted
When the Box admin is in process of deleting a user with a Relay workflow and closes the browser by accident, the workflow ends up with no owner.
I would like that workflow to either get deleted or transfer the ownership to the Box admin4 votes -
Lack of clear notification of whether BoxDrive is syncing or not
There should be a clear icon in the Finder AND in the BoxDrive top menu icon clearly showing whether syncing is on or off. Support told em the only way to know if files are correctly syncing is to look at the files in the Finder and if there are NO ICONS then it's working. The lack of something is not a reasonable way to identify is something is working correctly. PLEASE add a symbol that shows the synching status that is easy to confirm!!
