Include Enterprise Events for access changes to shared links triggered by enterprise-wide settings updates
If an admin updates the enterprise-wide shared link settings from open to restrictive (for example, removes "People with the link" as an option), the access level on any existing open links is changed. This change is not included in Enterprise Events/Usage Log reports.

Ability to auto-delete content when a shared link expires
We would like the ability for content to auto-delete upon a specified expiry of a shared link.
Specifically, we feel this would give us better control over removing not only the sharing but the content itself and automate some processes we have.

Option to Remove Expiration of a Collaborator after Auto-Expiration is disabled
Admin request option when disabling Auto-Expiration feature for collaborators within Enterprise:
- Allow option to choose extension date for pre-existing collaborators who's access is going to expire.
- Allow option to disable/remove auto expiration for collaborators by Admin or Owner.
This will affect multiple user across our enterprise where they will have to be re-invited to folders since expiration cannot be removed.
9 votesThank you for your note! We will consider this request with additional demand.

User-Level Sharing Controls: Control sharing permissions at the User level
This request is specific to controlling external sharing permissions and defaults at the user level. For example, an admin should be able to permit whether a user can generate Open Shared Links (e.g., disable open links per user), invite external collaborators, and the default shared link permission that is generated by that user, even if those users are within a folder that has external sharing enabled.
30 votesWe are currently focused on building groups for access to 1st and 3rd party apps and specific enterprise settings in Box rather than focusing on groups or individual users for sharing controls. Uservoice request here: pulse.box.com/admin/v3/suggestions/36670615
To achieve granular sharing controls, you can explore using Box Shield to classify sensitive content and set access policies to that content.

Collaborators Page (Item-Level) -- Add Ability to Sort by Column Headers / Filter by External Collab
The Collaborators page (at the file/folder level) currently does not allow any sorting capabilities. Add a simple ability to click the column headers to change the sort order to things like "added most recently at top" or "reverse alphabetical order by name".
Additionally, adding an "external?' filter to only show external collaborators in the folder would be awesome.
58 votesDue to other higher priority items, we are not planning on this at this time.

Ability to highlight single column in box notes.
You can't currently highlight a single column in box notes, but you can highlight a single row. This would be helpful for formatting and organization.

Hello!
We're excited to let you know that we're currently actively working on SFTP implementation at Box. The initial version will be modeled after our trusted FTPS server, but we're eager to improve the experience of using it, so if you happen to have suggestions or ideas we should take into consideration – whether that involves authentication, performance, compatibility or any other matter, do not shy away from letting us know and get in touch.
Thanks in advance and speak soon.

Allow users to manually prompt Box Drive upgrade from the Drive menu.
If a user's machine is running, they will receive the prompt to upgrade to a new version, even if they are not actively using their machine. This will cause users to miss the upgrade prompt for 24 hours.
We would ask that messaging is added to the Drive menu letting a user know that a "new version is available." If they click this, they will again receive the prompt to upgrade.

Redirect collaborator invite email links to ent.box.com as opposed to app.box.com for enterprises that have Box Verified Enterprise enabled
Currently, when a managed user in the BVE-enabled instance invites an external collaborator into a folder, the invite email takes the collaborator to app.box.com to login.
This redirect action, however, will fail with external collaborators who are in China.

Role based permissions or more granular permissions on groups
Ideal is a role based permission where you can select individual folders, people, and files that users have access to as well as admin permissions.
Other option is to add more granular permissions for groups.
8 votesWe do not plan to add more permissions / roles at this time.

Shared Link Lookup Tool
Problem: Admins often need to do investigation of files stored in Box and all they have to go off of is the file/folder's shared link. Since admins can't search by shared link in the current Content Manager UI, a Shared Link Lookup tool would provide similar information.
Key Features:
-Provide ability to enter a shared link (standard or vanity URL)
-Information returned after searching:
-File/folder name
-File/folder owner
-File/folder location (Owner -> Folder hierarchy)
-Status (whether the file/folder has been deleted or not)
-Admin-level 'delete' (ability for the admin to delete the file on the spot)54 votesHello,
This features is in beta, please reach out to me if you want to participate,
Regards,

Mounting Box as a letter drive is not currently on the roadmap. As a workaround, we are enabling the ability to customize the Box location so you can place it under a different HD partition. More details can be found here: https://pulse.box.com/admin/v3#ng!/suggestions/35982937

Live update of comments while in preview mode
We'd like to have comments from other users automatically post & update real time for other collaborators who have the document open in Preview to see. Currently users have to refresh the screen or exit and re-enter the file to see a new comment if they are already in Preview mode
