Eliminate "We’ve Sent You a Confirmation Email" page for provisioned accounts
We feel that showing "We’ve Sent You a Confirmation Email" page is not appropriate page for provisioned account's
that are manually created in Admin Console or that are auto provisioned from AD.
If Admin create new accounts with Silent mode, the confirmation email is not sent.
Therefor user needs to create password on "Reset password" page manually. This is OK.
After creating the password and try to login with the created password, "We’ve Sent You a Confirmation Email" page
is displayed. But confirmation email is not sent. The user needs to click "Resend Confirmation Email" to receive "Please complete your…26 votes -
As an admin, I should be able to designate a folders zone (not restricted by the user).
In a closed environment where you have a single user designated as the owner, you are currently unable to utilize multiline tenancy. In an instance where UK HR Files need to have a zone of UK and US HR Files need to be in the US zone, I would need to create a separate service account to own each set of files.
Ideally you would be able to designate anything containing PII/PIA/IP to a root folder with a designated zone based on data storage compliance. Allowing multiple users to access without worrying about the need for unnecessary service accounts…

There isn't a way yet to see how and when the setting was changed. We're trying to know is who and when and how did the Collaboration and Privacy settings change on Admin Console User Activity reports.

Metadata: enable cascading Metadata for custom Metadata
I enabled Cascading Metadata, but can only use existing Metadata Templates. When I try to use custom Metadata that is not an existing template, I get error: "Cascade policy cannot be applied to custom metadata at this time."

Updates for Task Management
Task management should:
-Show a total number of tasks outstanding
-Have the ability to categorize tasks
-Have the ability to prioritize tasks
-Include summary of time elapsed since task assignment
-Always allow the user to check the task off, reject the task, or delegate the task to another
-Task list should ALWAYS be searchable
-Task lists should have the ability to have filters applied (age of task, assigned by, prioritization level, category, etc.)
-Task auto assignment based on adjustable rules would be a plus63 votesAdditional categorization and prioritization is not currently planned for our Tasks feature at this time. Please continue to leave feedback on use cases for consideration in future planning cycles.

Request to add an Address book feature when adding or @mentioning users.
Currently, there are only 5 suggestions displayed when adding, @mentioning users.
There are more than 5 users with the same name and it is hard to filter out the exact user.
We would like an address book feature so we can filter out the users to invite. Address book should include user name, Organization name, groups, etc.
5 votesThis is currently not on the roadmap as we have not heard this request from many other customers.
We will consider it in the future if there is increased customer demand.

Add a function to extract the collaboration list for each specific folder of box by "user (editor etc.)"
I want you to add a function to extract the collaboration list for each specific folder of BOX by "user (editor etc.)"
Background：
Currently, it is necessary to output the report (collaboration) by the administrator,
but I want to output it by a user without administrator authority, not by the administrator each time.
Not one department or company that manages all folders,
Each small folder has a co-owner, and the co-owner grants access rights and strips them.
Therefore, it is necessary to deal with the intrusion of many people such as personnel changes of those who have access rights…5 votes -
Allow administrative "As-User' calls to bypass steps that require user intervention, such as accepting Custom Terms of Service.
As-User calls made by an admin, on behalf of the user, should not require any end user interaction to work. This supports API driven administration prior to making Box available to end users, which is common when deploying at scale or performing data migrations.
In particular, non-acceptance of Custom Terms of Service and Uncompleted Email Verification currently cause such calls to fail until the end user takes action to complete them.
makes the migration process overly complex.7 votesGreat feedback. Currently, there is no Email Verification required today for app users, and we do have a Terms of Service API: developer.box.com/reference#terms-of-service-object

Enhancement to the UI when the user violates the limit on the number of items in the trash can that can be confirmed on the screen.
I want to improve the behavior when the user violates the limit on the number of items in the trash can that can be confirmed on the screen.
I want you to display up to the latest ○ items instead of displaying the contents at all.
If it is difficult to realize this request, please display the screen of the reason why it is not displayed and the workaround screen instead of the error screen of "The specified page does not exist" to reduce the business impact.If it disappears suddenly, you will not be able to restore or confirm…

Ability to scope Malicious Content Rules by User/Group/Shield Lists
Currently malicious content rules apply to all users. To test moving from an audit/detection-only stance to enforcement, it would be useful to be able to create multiple rules that are scoped to specific users/groups/Shield Lists.
This will allow us to keep most users in an audit/detection-only rule, while we test enforcement with a pilot group in another rule.3 votes -
Task lifecycle should reside with the document, not the creator of the task
When a user assigns a task on a document, and then leaves the enterprise, the task is deleted from the document when the user is deleted.
The task is actually a part of the document's lifecycle, not the lifecycle of the user. If the content is owned by the enterprise, the termination of the user should not cause the task to be deleted.
Our use case is this:
Internal auditor gathers content and places it in Box
Internal auditor assigns a task to the Finance Director and CFO to review the content
Finance Director and CFO approve the task.…10 votes -
Do not create folder in "All Files" when a user already has access to a folder in higher hierarchy
Everytime a Box folder is added to a Microsoft Teams team using the box plugin, or a user is invited to a box folder, the according folder appears in All files. We have a large number of teams and a lot of projects, so "All files" gets messed up quite quick. Box and the box plugin should check if a user already has access to a folder in the higher hierarchy. In this case the folder should not appear separately in "All Files".

Increase number of concurrent Box Notes editors
Box Notes currently allows only 20 concurrent editors. For a conference or other large gathering it may be useful to have 100+. Please consider increasing the limit, or replacing the hard limit with an in-UI warning (e.g., "You have more than 30 people editing and performance may be reduced").
In the meantime, also please clearly document the maximum concurrent user limit and behavior in the KB.
37 votesWe are now supporting 30 concurrent editors. We will aim to increase this limit in the future.

Ability to filter events by "Affected" on user activity report
We would like to have the ability to filter events by "Affected" column (currently, user and affected folder/file are only available filter options).
For e.g., for "Add login app" event, device information is logged in "Affected" column, and so having this filter option will help us identify new login from unintended devices and improve monitoring.2 votes -
Retrieve logs of users who uploaded files via the file request link
The file request link is extremely useful in our daily operations. It is a great feature that allows users without a Box account to upload files to Box. However, under the current specifications, if logging in to Box is not required in the settings, no information about the person who uploaded the file via the file request link is recorded in the logs. This poses a significant problem from an audit and compliance perspective.
For example, if a user enters their email address in the email field at the time of upload, it would be very helpful if that…
