    not planned  ·  katiele responded

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the user interface and performance before we add customizations to bulk add.

  2. New Search Filter - 'Last Updated By'

    Currently, Box users can't search by a criteria of the user who updated some document most recently. There's a search filter for 'owner', but not 'last updated/modified by'.

    REQUEST: Add a 'last updated/modified by' filter to the quick search and full search results filter options.

  3. Ability to print Box Notes from Box on iOS

    We would like the ability to print a Box Note from their mobile device.

  4. FTP not available to external users for Enterprise accounts.

    Currently FTP for Box is only available to Business and Enterprise accounts for bulk migration of data. It is not available for Personal accounts (Free or Pro).

    This is problematic for Enterprise users that have external vendors, partners, customers (collaborators) that need to upload a large data set to their Enterprise account through FTP.

    Since these external collaborators are Free users, they do not have access to FTP but are still collaborating with us.

    REQUEST: Add support for FTP uploads for external collaborators that are specifically collaborating with a paying Enterprise Box account?

  6. Require Editing ONLY via Office Online for Certain Files (disable Box Edit at the file level)

    Use Case: I have a spreadsheet that I know will be highly collaborative; as such, I want to prevent people from being able to use Box Edit with the file and I want to require that they edit it using Office Online due to enhanced co-authoring, etc.

    Basically, this would be a 'only allow edits using Office Online'-type setting at the file level.

  12. Excel Online Previewer - Allow Zooming In / Out

    Need a way to zoom in/out while using MS Excel Online Preview. Currently zoom in/out using web browser is the only way. This is not really user friendly.

  13. When Deleting managed users 'Notify User' should be unchecked by default

    When we delete managed users this screen pops up confirming our request with an option to Notify user. By default it is checked off.

    Can we change that in our enterprise settings so that is unchecked by default?

  14. Add permission that allows Group Admins to delete user accounts in their group and transfer content

    We want the option to give full granular account management capabilities to Group Admins, including the ability for Group Admins to delete an account or transfer data to another user.

    Without this, IT is still required to get involved for deprovisioning. They'd have the option to give this ability to Group Admins for their departments or groups as a granular permission

  15. Suppress Notifications - Expand Scope to Suppress In-App Entries in the Updates Feed & Access Stats (for DLP & CASB Integrations)

    Services (like DLP and CASB partners such as Netskope and Skyhigh) that use the Content API to scan Box content have the ability to suppress email notifications that would normally be generated for various activity (such as downloads, etc.). This is great as the activity from these services should be transparent and not exposed to the end user.

    However, the Suppress Notifications header currently only applies to suppressing email notifications -- these entries for activity from these API-based services still are exposed in-app to end users on the Updates feed and in other locations such as Access Stats.

    REQUEST: Expand…

  16. Provide a complementary Event in the Events API that a file has been successfully scanned for viruses

    We would like to take an action on a file once it has been successfully scanned for viruses. The files are being uploaded from an external party through a white labeled application.

    We understand we would get an event that a malicious file has been found. We would also like the opposite event that a file has been scanned and has not been found to be malicious via the API.

  17. Classification Reporting - Add Details of Classification Changes to Usage Logs

    Currently, when a file's Classification level is changed, a 'Metadata -> Edited Attributes' event is generated in Usage Logs. However, this event entry doesn't say WHAT changed (aka, it could be a Classification change, it could be any other metadata change - the admin can't tell).

    REQUEST: Add information to the 'Details' column of Usage Logs (and the Excel export / API event stream) about what Classification attributes (aka tell the admin what the Classification WAS, and what it is NOW).
