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
50 votesUnfortunately this is not on the near-term roadmap, that being said this is a very interesting request which we may consider in the mid-long term.

Security Report: Include Changes to Any Setting from Enterprise Settings
Currently, the Security Report doesn't appear to capture quite a few settings changes that happen in Enterprise Settings in the Admin console, which is bad.
For example, if an admin is wanting to know who changed the 'save files to device' setting on the Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Mobile tab, there's no in-product way currently to identify that. Also,
--All Notifications tab settings except for the Compliance Email Archive settings are missing
--ALL settings from the Apps tab are missing, meaning there are no filters/logs exposed currently for any changes to make apps available/disabled, disabling all published apps,…30 votes -
Copy file in workflow should create a new version if file already exists
I am creating Quality Management workflows. At the end of the workflow the released document is copied to a new area, that is shared with the consumers of the QM-documentation.
Works fine the first time we run the workflows. If we update the document and run the workflow again, the target file is not versioned: we get a new file with the same name and a timestamp added to it.
I appreciate this behaviour in some situations and understand why you have chosen this solution. However we would like to have the option in the workflow to "version the file,…

Show recent files from Box when a user clicks the standard attach button.
The attach/attachment button today will show recent onedrive files, and users have asked if it can also show recent box files.

Search contents of Box notes (or other documents) even when encryption is enabled
I understand that if data is encrypted outside of Box (as is likely the case for any enterprise user), the search functionality for Box is limited to file names only. Can Box add support for search within documents (Box notes at a minimum, but ideally other document types) even in the case where the enterprise user has encryption enabled? Not having this functionality makes search useless for many of our use cases as a large development team.

Read Enterprise Settings using API
Is there a way to read Enterprise Settings using API? That would be much beneficial where the Admin can choose certain settings like Storage and there wont be a necessity to change the Code every time the Admin wants to change the settings. The API can read the existing settings and manage users based on those configurations. Currently, the application that manages Box accounts has to store those locally and every time there is a change in those settings, that calls for a Change management and code deployment.

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 permissionsIn 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.

Box Relay
Box Relay needs to be able to create a work flow for a parent folder and have it work for all child folders. A user is setting up a simple notification (upload, download) and then sends a notification to a set of users with a message. The user currently has to replicate or create a new Relay for each child folder. Very, very silly to have to waist so much time.

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.

If virus is detected at the time of download, Virus Scan Alert on virus-found should be sent to the downloading user.
If customer opt-in for Virus Scan, Box currently checks for a virus at the time of file download too. And Box sends an e-mail to Admin and file owner when virus is found.
It should be a basic Box feature to alert and/or prevent a user from downloading a malicious file. Box should also quarantine or prevent a user from opening the file.

Allow Us To Move Collaborator Folders to a sub-folder without removing the permissions
When a user shares a folder with us it sits in our Root folder. Can these show up in a Shared folder to save our Root folder having a load of odd name folders. We believe you can do this in Dropbox.
ideally we need to be able to change the folder name at our end too without amending it at the user end.

Correct log when a user creates an item in Box
Currently, "Uploaded" and "Downloaded" are logged when a user creates an item like Word document, Box Note etc.
However, it should be logged as "Created".

"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.

Opening multiple files at once
It would greatly improve flow and user experience to be able to open multiple PDFs at once. Our team must review numerous individual PDFs, and we have only ever been able to open one PDF at a time. It becomes a tedious task to open each individual PDF.

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).

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

Approval Task With Box Relay Enhancements
When allocating approval tasks in Box Relay, users are able to uncheck the "Invite the person in charge as a viewer" function.
In addition, if "Invite users as viewers" is enabled, and the members in charge have been granted permission as members of a group, which prevent them from being invited to the file as viewers.53 votesWe’re evaluating this as a feature now.

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…

Prevent users to change their own permission level
Prevent users to cange their own permission level in order to avoid "downgrading" the permission from Co-Owner to Viewer (for example) just for yourself.
Or not allowing a user to remove himself/herself from a folder.
