  1. SSO exception

    Ability to have exceptions for SSO for specific amdin accounts/test users. Use case: there's a series of admin accounts we use that own folders/content in Box but aren't actual users. Now when we want to turn on SSO - we now have to have OKTA accounts for those accounts and test users, when we'd prefer to just do Box 2FA for those vs. SSO enabled for all

  2. Multiple files in one shared link

    We would like to send multiple documents from separate folders in a single shared link.

    Currently when you select multiple files, you are limited to files within one folder, and the files are sent with a shared link for each file.

    Possible solve: "Bundle zone" in the web UI where you could drag and drop files from different folders, and once you have all the ones you want, tell it to generate a single shared link which would display like a folder to the recipient, without the user having to rearrange their content.

  3. "SSO Authentication Should Be Counted as 'Login' in User Statistics Report"

    SSO Authentication is not counted as "Login" in User Statistics report. SSO Authentication is also "Login" activity. It should be counted.

  5. Filter Box Signs by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive)

    Box Sign: Enable ability to filter by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive), rather than on the right side (less intuitive).

  6. data quota inconsistency

    Provide admins to be able to correct the issue that appears to happen quite a bit with our users data consistency. e.g users box quota is showing incorrect data than box has for them. user sees 25GB used but Box thinks it is 50GB.

  8. Not able to see all the overdue tasks for all users

    Currently I only can see the overdue tasks assigned to myself and the tasks I sent to others. We would like to see overall overdue tasks for all groups and other users. This overdue report is very important to our business process.

  10. Ability to show or hide specific metadata templates for specific users and groups only.

    As the number of metadata templates increases, selecting metadata when creating file request links or Relay workflows can become complicated and lead to mistakes.
    By setting metadata templates that you want to use only for specific users/groups, you can reduce mistakes like this and improve the usability of Box, so We would like to see it implemented.

    メタデータテンプレート数が増加するにあたりファイルリクエストリンクやRelayワークフローの作成の際のメタデータ選択が煩雑になりミスを誘発する可能性があります 。
    特定のユーザー/グループにのみ使用させたいメタデータテンプレートを設定することでこのようなミスを削減しBoxの利便性にも繋がるため是非実現してほしいです。

  12. Just in time User Provisioning / Licensing

    The current way of licensing is old school. Instead, you could leverage Okta's just-in-time provisioning: https://help.okta.com/en/prev/Content/Topics/Security/Security_Authentication.htm?cshid=Security_Authentication_JIT#Security_Authentication_JIT

    Then (with SSO required & on the fly), Box grants everyone in an org an acct after logging in thru SSO, they're auto-provisioned a Box instance, and a license is registered/"billed" to company.

  13. Allow Admins to Recover Deleted Users Directly

    Occasionally, Admins can delete a user (or large group of users) for one reason or another (license re-allocation, deleting users based off of perceived inactivity, etc.). Sometimes these users need to be recovered quickly to give users access to their Box account once again if this was done by mistake. The ultimate goal would be to enable Admins who have the ability to manage users to recover deleted accounts on their own (whether through somewhere in the admin console and/or via the CLI or API) so that product support doesn't need to do so through…

  15. Save external contacts used regularly as recipients

    This is where users have their own contact list with email addresses and want to use these regularly in unique documents rather than templates. The request is to import and maintain these so they can be easily looked up when adding the signers to send a document to.

  16. Support for managed user authentication by unique ID other than email address

    Email address is not a reliable identifier in our world because it tends to change for the end user at certain times:

    User decides to legally change their name (via marriage or other situation)

    User is moved from one business unit to another (which prompts a change in their email domain suffix from person@busunit1.company.com to person@busunit2.company.com)

    User goes on a leave of absence (in which case the email address is removed or temporarily disabled in their HR system)

    When these changes happen (usually initiated from their HR system), it will percolate downstream to update their other applications. Their IdP…

  18. 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

  19. Requests regarding Box For Teams V2

    I would like to use the Box For Teams V2 integration, but the following functions are bottlenecks and cannot be used.

    Therefore, I want to be able to turn off only the following functions in the tenant settings.
     
     ・Automatic creation of Box folders for teams/channels
     ・Automatic mapping of user permissions

    In most cases, Japanese companies use a controlled system in which the administrator owns the items.

    However, if folders are automatically created or permissions are automatically attached with the Box For Teams V2 integration, control cannot be taken, so we requested this.

    (日本語)
    Box For Teams V2連携を利用したいが下記の機能がボトルネックになり利用できない。
    そのため、テナント設定で下記機能のみをOFFに出来るようにして欲しい。

  20. Provide Notification when user is removed as a collaborator

    Right now, users do not get a notification when they are removed as a collaborator from a folder. This can cause confusion as this could be caused by a number reasons (ie deletions, inactive users), and results in admin assistance to dive in to what may have occurred. Users do get a notification when they are added to a folder, so they should also get one when they are removed from a folder as well
