1. Collaborator Clean Up

   Collaborator Clean Up - In Account Settings / Collaborators, we want to add the ability to click on any collaborator and see what files and folders they have access to. When looking at the list, have a button available to remove them from specific folders as needed. This will be especially helpful when performing a CBN, Audit or Digital Clean up.

   The usage of the page is very low. We are gathering feedback about what is the best step forward for the Collaborators page under setting.

3. Allow users to save column width settings in folder view (Box Web and Box Drive)

   Description:
   Currently, when viewing folders in Box (both Web and Box Drive), the default column widths for fields like "Name" and "Modified Date" are too narrow. Users must manually adjust the column widths every time they open a folder. However, these adjustments are not saved, and the view resets to the default narrow widths.
   This causes inconvenience and reduces productivity, especially for users who frequently work with long file names or need to sort by date.
   Feature Request:

   Enable users to save their preferred column widths in folder views.
   Apply saved settings persistently across sessions and folders.
   Optionally allow administrators to set default column widths for their organization.

   This feature would greatly improve usability and efficiency for many Box users.

4. Please implement the function to restore the contents in the trash to a folder other than the original folder location.

   Please implement the function to restore the contents in the trash to a folder other than the original folder location.

   Currently, when restoring files/folders from the trash, it will be restored to the same folder as before the deletion.
   If we accidentally delete a large number of items that we plan to move, it will take a considerable amount of time to restore and then move, and the items in the move process (delete / move / copy) will be temporarily locked, which will hinder our business.
   We are confident that if we can select the restore location, which will reduce our business impact.

5. Control External Collaboration at User Level (not folder level)

   Currently, users can have a restriction placed on them that folders owned by that user cannot be collaborated outside of the organization. However, if that user is invited into a folder that allows for external collaboration, that user can invite external collaborators.

   We want flexibility to control this at a user by user basis. For example, User A should not be able to invite external collaborators, regardless of folder that they're invited into. However, User B should have the ability to do so (but only within folders that User B owns or within another folder that is set to allow external collaboration).

   not planned  ·  kwarudkar responded

   Thank you for this request! I’d like to see additional customers with use cases for user-level collaboration restrictions.

   Collaboration is a setting that is tied to content rather than users, and I’m not sure that we have evidence yet to make changes to that model.

6. New Metadata Types that Reference Files, Folders, Users, and Groups

   Provide the capability to store and manage a relationship as metadata. This would allow you to model peer and parent-child relationships between Files, Folders, Users, and Groups. This would store the unique id for the Box object and provide a user experience that would allow you to navigate to each item by clicking on the metadata value.

7. Folder Setting Limitations - Box Drive

   We have folders for each office where they store their active and archived (old) jobs. These folders can can contain many hundreds of job folders (sub folders to the parent folder) representing hundreds of GB and even over TB in some cases of data. It is way too easy for users to simply check ‘mark for offline’ in Box drive or attempt to sync the folder in Box Sync.

   When that happens we have custody of data issue for a ton of files. Further it allows people to easily steal data in bulk. Just in the past week we have had two users “accidentally” mark for offline over 150 GB and often times it just fills their local drive and everything stops working. Having people be ‘viewers’ of these folders is not an option as they are working on the jobs. This happens a lot in our organization, so I’m sure other customers experience this as well.

   Box should have a Folder Setting that has some control of this. Maybe something like:
   Download via webapp (Allow - yes/no; apply to subfolders- yes/no)
   Box Drive MFO (Allow - yes/no; apply to subfolders- yes/no)
   Box Sync - Allow Sync (Allow - yes/no; apply to subfolders- yes/no)

8. Need to have the ability to share links with "Invited people" in organization and to external people in named specific domain

   Need to have the ability to share links with "Invited people" in organization and to external people in named specific domain.

   We have a need to keep folder collaboration available to only a specific group of internal users but we would like to be able to have the ability to share files or folders with external collaborators in specific domains. Almost like another level of the "Invited People" type of link. Can this be considered as an enhancement?

10. When outputting a report from the Admin Console, the user interface for searching folders cannot uniquely identify folders with the same fol

    When narrowing down the user activity report to activities under a specific folder, a search is performed by folder name, but if there are many identical folder names, it is not possible to uniquely specify the folder.
    I would like to be able to display the folder path from the root or specify by folder ID.

    管理コンソールでレポートを出力する際にフォルダを検索するユーザーインターフェースで同一フォルダ名が存在すると一意に特定が出来ない

    ユーザーアクティビティレポートで特定のフォルダ配下のアクティビティに絞るときにフォルダ名で検索を実施するが同一フォルダ名が多くあると、どれが出力したいフォルダなのかが判別が出来ないのでルートからのフォルダパスを表示したりフォルダIDでの指定が出来るようにして欲しい。

    This feature is on our roadmap.

12. Have "View" functionality available when selecting "include sub-folders"

    At this time, when running a report and toggling on the "include subfolders" option, the "View" option is not supported. A "No matching results found" message appears or the previewed actions don't take the selected folders into consideration.

    The generated report does show the correct actions with the selected filters, but there's a need for better previewing before running the report. This will allow admins to have a clearer understanding of what will be in the final report.

13. Slack: Show Preview of Box Files within Slack

    Currently, the Box + Slack integration auto-unfurls Box shared links that are posted into a DM/Channel in slack.

    The only Box file type that unfurls to a native (in-line) preview are image files (jpg, png, etc.).

    Slack has a native preview for a video file uploaded directly in Slack, but no preview for the same file when shared via Box.

    REQUEST: Add in the native (in-line) preview (that already exists for image files shared from Box) for many more common file types (Office files, PDFs, mp4s, etc.) -- possibly by leveraging the Box Preview API.

14. Require Passwords at Admin Level

    As a security feature, it would be helpful to require passwords for all shared links. Right now they are only required at the User level and it is optional. It would be very helpful as a security feature to allow admins to mandate a password for all shared links.

16. Ability to see full name of Groups and Folders in the Admin Console

    When adding or reviewing groups in Box new Admin console, we are unable to see the full name of the group and it does it does not appear in alphabetical order. Same is true for the folders collaboration section. The names are cut off and you cannot scroll or hover to see the full name. Even shrinking the screen does not help. This is very problematic for security reasons as you may grant access to the wrong group or the wrong folder or create duplicates if you miss seeing an existing group or folder. And it wastes alot of time. Please fix. It is very very frustrating.

19. Need APIs for auto deletion of files and folders.

    Need APIs for marking files and folders for auto deletion in future date. This feature is on the portal, but provided as an API.

    Box can add this as an attribute to the file upload or folder creation API. Or a separate folder/file attribute API, so the date can be changed, if required later after its creation.

    We are automating activities on Box.com using RPA, the APIs are faster and reusable compared to the UI automation.

    Box should introduce APIs for basic features such as this one, so these can be done at the backend and it is more optimized and gains on performance.
