  2. Reports: Add Matter Name to Title of Report Export (Excel File)

    Example name of the current report:
    "legalholdsrunon7-28-16__2-24-23-PM"?

    That doesn't tell me which matter it's related to.

    A unique identifier - likely the name - for the matter/hold should also be added to the file name.

  4. Enhance the 'Storage Aggregate' Chart in Admin Console - Allow Exporting & Adjustments

    The 'Storage Aggregate' chart on the homepage of the Admin Console is currently the only way for an admin to see/view the total storage used on a daily basis within their EID

    As such, we should enhance this chart in the following ways:
    1. Allow this chart to be expanded/made bigger
    2. Allow customization of the time period - 'show me total daily storage over the past 2 weeks, or month, etc.'
    3. All exporting of the total daily values into a simple CSV/Excel report

  6. Configurable minimum TLS level for communicating with our tenant

    We want a means to force TLS 1.2 in our environment for both internal and external users. We can control our managed users, but it does leave some external users potentially using a lower TLS connection.

  10. Feature Enhancements: Grouped Boolean Operators, CSV Export, and Batch Download

    For the Content Manager please look at the following:

    1. Allow grouped Boolean operators, e.g. (“ben phillips” OR “benjamin phillips”) AND (“london” OR “ec2v”)
      Currently support only for (“ben phillips” AND “London”)

    2. Allow export of full search result list (title, file path, etc) to CSV
      Currently just displays search results on screen, paginated to 20 results

    3. Allow download of all search result content (files/folders) in one zip file
      Currently checkbox only allows selection of 20 results on screen for download

  11. Remove Last Updated By for Root Salesforce Folder

    Since our root SFDC folder is owned by the Box Service Account and our users are collaborators on it, anytime a user modifies something in that folder their name appears as someone that accessed/modified it.

    This is creating worry in our network because Advisor 1 is led to believe that Advisor 2 has access to his/her files, which is not the case. Advisor 2 may have just accessed their own files within that parent folder.

    Is it possible to remove this column entirely from our view or change the sort by something else so names do not appear?

  13. You cannot get trashed versions via the API or deleted trashed versions

    While you can GET and permanently delete FILES & FOLDERS via the API by interacting with TRASH, you cannot do so for FILE VERSIONS, e.g. GET/DELETE
    https://api.box.com/2.0/files/<file_ID>/versions/<version_ID>/trash

  14. Improve Installer UX: Update Branding + Tell User What to Do

    The Box Edit installer has 2 key issues today:

    1. It is old Box branding
    2. It doesn't actually tell the user what they need to do (which is to double-click the icon)

    Many other modern installers, including the Box Sync installer, at least have an arrow or additional guidance telling the user to 'drag here' or 'double click to start the installation'. Box Edit doesn't have either of these, which means users end up confused about what they actually need to do.

    REQUEST: On the Edit installer, tell the user what to do. Aka add text that says "Double click this…

  17. Have a minimum number of rejecters to move a workflow back a step

    With Relay it's possible to set the process so that only 1 reviewer of 3 needs to approve to move to the next step.

    However, if 1 of those 3 reviewers rejects the expenses, Relay currently requires the other 2 reviewers to also reject to move the process back a step.

    It'd be helpful for these use-cases to have the ability to set minimum required rejecters

  18. Improve Certificate Checking & Rotation Process

    1. Proper certificate hygiene includes frequent rotation of certificates. In a large fleet of devices this may not be something that can be done instantly, so there should be a more flexible way to define what is trusted other than a single cert.

    2. A generic cert can easily be copied from one device to another allowing a clever use to spoof the check on an unmanaged device.

  19. Team Leads - Allow Reporting

    1.  The file Access Stats feature has been requested to be exportable for all records.  Similar to this Q.
      
    2.  A user requested to have access to self-run a filtered view of the Admin-Collaborations report to quickly see the status of all his collaborators (he deals with numerous external users and needs to know who to re-prompt.)
      

    We would like this outside of the Admin/Co-Admin being able to do it.

    We will still require admins/co-admins to grant access to reports such as this. However, we are looking into which controls and reporting might require additional self-serve enablement options.

  20. Ability to revoke admin rights

    Our account admin is no longer with the company, and we have no way to 1) revoke their access or 2) reassign their admin permissions. Given the confidential nature of the documents stored in Box, it is vital to have this ability internally. We thank you in advance for your help!
