bulk edit
I would like you to add the "Notification Email" item to "Bulk Edit".
It would be very helpful to add "Notification Email" to the items in Bulk edit in "Admin Console> Users & Groups> Bulk edit".
If the administrator can register the settings of the notification e-mails of the managed users by bulk editing, the efficiency of the administrator will increase, and the security of the
e-mails will be better than allowing each user to set up the notification e-mails.6 votes -

Improve the de-provisioning process in Box
Improve the de-provisioning process in Box so that old content isn't stored when it's not needed, and if it is needed, the right people are taking over ownership of the content. Workflow should look something like this: -User leaves company and is removed from AD group or marked somehow as "removed" -Collaborators on their shared folders are notified that they should take ownership of the folders, if the content is still needed. For example "you have 30 days to take ownership of X folder." -When they click to take ownership, the folder/file is now owned by them and other collaborators remain intact. -If no response, two more warnings are sent to users at the 15 days left mark and the 7 days left mark (their managers are also informed via notifications). -If no users claim the folder, it is deleted along with the account.

List View of Marked For Offline Files
It is imperative that we have a view of which folders we have Make Available Offline. We can't hunt and peck through hundreds of folders with a Green Checkmark on it to Make Available Online Only when we're finished with a big "sync". This is already a hoop we're jumping through because we can't "sync" to an external drive so we have to manually manage internal Hard Drive space. A user should be able to see what they have marked for offline at a glance so they can easily reverse the storage affect on local hard drives.

Add Linux to Web app QA process
The web app UX is horrible on Linux. It's not just one bug, but dozens of bugs that affect Linux and ChromeOS users.
Examples:
- Downloading a Docx will prompt you to open with Word instead
- Clicking Open will prompt you to install Box Tools
- Clicking install Box Tools will download an EXE fileAll of these are completely irrelevant and an annoying hurdle for Linux users. Box Tools for linux doesn't exist. Linux Users can't run EXE files. Open With Word doesn't make ANY sense, as Word doesn't exist for Linux.
Please fix.
53 votesThank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, we do not have plans to add support for Linux to the web app at this time. We’ll continue to monitor this thread to gauge interest, and will post updates should our plans change in the future.

Trash file from its preview
The trash command is missing from within the "..." button of the document view.
The workaround requires a lot of extra steps: navigate to the parent folder, select the file, trash the file.
Moreover it is not consistant with what is possible with folders: you can trash a folder from its own view.53 votes -

Add functionality to downloads report
Box can output "when", "who" and "started the download" from reports.

API: "email_alias" Is it possible to register other than the same domain?
API: "email_alias" Is it possible to register other than the same domain?
At this time, if you disable it until the email address is confirmed with
the same specifications as when registering from the UI,
I think that you can prevent misuse.Example)
Suppose a customer wants to give a user two email addresses in different
domains before the company integrates.
↓
This specification allows administrators to bulk register using
the API without user effort.1 vote -
True Client IP vs Accelerator IP in Audit Logs
To improve download speeds, Box automatically leverages "accelerator" hosts on various cloud/hosting providers around the world. When this happens, the "client IP address" recorded in the audit logs is the accelerator IP address, and not the true endpoint IP address. This results in false positives in "impossible travel" analytics, and could result in false negatives. We request that the audit logs be enhanced to capture the true client IP and accelerator IP (where applicable) as separate fields in the logs.

Improve overall support response times
Overall support response times for Box standard support have been terrible as of late. I understand that most staff are working from home but this does not justify >3 day response times on tickets where functionality within your products is broken and is hindering productivity.
Did you fire half of your support staff?
1 voteThank you for bringing this to our attention. We have escalated your support ticket.

Remember the folder location for your flow on folder picker component
Once you built your workflow, sometimes you want to doublecheck folder location for your flow.
When folder structure is deep, the path is not visible on your flow, so you click the folder picker but it will navigate you to a root folder instead of the folder you selected.
It will be helpful if it has an option to go to the selected folder location for the flow rather than root folder.1 vote -

File Request Action in Box Relay
A file request action on Folder in Relay that could automate generation of the File Request link and email it to a specified email address. Supporting automation of uploads from individuals without Box accounts.
9 votesAn integration between File Request and Relay was delivered this year. At the moment this programmatic generation of a link can be achieved with an API. An outcome type in Relay to generate a FR link is not yet planned.
