  2. Secure open link - Domain white list for open shared link

    This request is an idea that will become possible after the following requests are realized.
    Secure open link① - Require email address verification with one-time password
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/43755942-secure-open-link-require-email-address-verifica

    【Summary】
    Please add "Allow only email addresses from specific domains to receive one-time passwords" to the Open Link settings.
    This will make it possible to prevent secondary distribution and miscommunication, which is a huge issue for Open Link.

    【Issues to be solved】
    Current Open Link is not secure enough as an alternative to attachments.
    Compared to attachments, the ability to determine the information of the access source and the ability to block access…

  4. Idea: develop more ways to receive 2-step verification code (email address or application on smart phone )

    Recently, I did not receive 2-step verification code through SMS to log in my Box account, so I had to request support from Box team to disable 2-step verification in my Box account. I know that without 2-step verification, my Box account is less secure. Please consider the following idea: (i) add another way that we can receive 2-step verification code such as the email address, or (ii) develop the application on smart phone (e.g. iOS, Android phones) that generates 2-step verification code for Box account. Thank you (PS: I just move from BoxSync to BoxDrive, so I decide to…

  5. Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box

    Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box

    We would like to request the following improvements to the “People with the link” option within Box’s Share Link feature, which is used to grant viewing or downloading access to folders or files for organisations or email addresses that do not have a Box account or existing folder permissions.

    At present, requiring the link creator to manually set a password is rather cumbersome, and as a result, many users choose not to do so. Since there is no enforcement mechanism, some organisations restrict or even prohibit the use…

  6. Box Drive Accidental Deletion

    Since the introduction of Box Drive end users that haven't read the documentation and skip through the walkthrough aren't used to seeing all of the files and folders.

    The user without realizing, then believes that all of these files and folders either aren't needed or are taking up physical space on their hard drive.  The user then either randomly deletes select files and folder or just deletes everything within Box Drive.  A solution is needed to either further alert or prevent this.  One other possible solution is to create a process to fully restore all of the deletions and collaborations.

  7. Search issue

    1) Searching in "File and Folder names" only will display results foun in file metadata:
    https://i.imgur.com/CUHkdDQ.png

    2) Search with Russian words will display irrelevant results:
    2.1) box finds particular letters, not complete words
    2.2) box displays search results even there is no file with requested name

  8. Separate Move / Copy buttons

    Please consider improving this within Amsterdam

    There are a number of use cases that can be supported by separating the Move / Copy button into unique buttons:

    1) Folder or file templates: Users with Viewer access (can download) should be able to COPY a file or folder elsewhere. Currently this is not supported -- the user must download, which loses BoxNotes and Bookmarks.

    2) Separating "records" from reference material -- If Retention is set on a file, the user may want to copy a version elsewhere that is not subject to Retention

    not planned  ·  Stephanie Zhang responded

    Interesting suggestion, but we won’t be focusing on this ask for the time being due to competing priorities.

  9. Requests for additional features in Box Drive v2.33

    We have consolidated our content in Box, and have reduced the amount of space in the user area of our PCs to the point where almost no space exists.
    We also try to keep as little space on the desktop as possible, so the new features in Box Drive v2.33 are not required.

    ■Additional features that were an issue
    Saving unsynchronized files upon logout
    When logging out, users will be able to save files that have not been uploaded to Box.

    ■Functionality Improvement Requests
    Therefore, we would like to see any of the following realized for the ability to save…

  10. Auto lock/unlock for read-only file.

    Currently, BoxDrive works with AutoLockUnlock=1 as below.

    1. When we open a read-only settings(Windows OS file property), it is locked automatically.
    2. And then, when we close the file, the read-only setting is gone.

    Please improve as below.

    1. When we open a read-only settings(Windows OS file property), it is not locked automatically.
    2. And then, when we close the file, the read-only setting keeps.

  11. I would like to have a collaboration role that only allows me to reference shared links.

    I would like to have a collaboration role that only allows me to reference shared links.
    Alternatives (1) through (3) could not be adopted for a reason.

    (1) Why not just use the Previewer?
    I want to collaborate from the top of the folder tree to prevent confusion about where I collaborated.
    For this purpose, I want a collaboration role that can only refer to shared links that cannot refer to other files.

    (2) Why don't we just create a shared link that is open to everyone and add a password?
    If you make it public, you won't know who…

  13. Notify me when a file is unlocked by another collaborator

    When a file is locked for editing by another user, on a case-by-case basis, I would like to be notified via email when that file is unlocked.

    Either:

    1. a file-setting that always notifies me after a user unlocks a specific file or
    2. a one-off subscription to a file when it is locked that I can set that notifies me via email when that file is unlocked. After this one-off notice occurs, the subscription would be deleted.

  14. Request for improvement to the number of users without access displayed on the content card in Box for Teams

    If the user has only been invited as a group, they will be counted and shown as "without access" even though they have access permissions because they are not a direct collaborator.
    We are aware that this behavior is documented in a support article.
    However, the display differs from the actual situation and may induce incorrect responses, as described below.
    Therefore, we would like to request a fix so that it shows the accurate number of users without access, whether they are direct collaborators or group collaborators.

     ex)
     1.Even though the target user has access rights as a group, there…

  15. Enable SSO through OAuth2 and not only SAML 2.0

    We use an in-house IdP. This IdP leverages OAuth2 OpenID. It does not use SAML 2.0

    Therefore we need Box to have the capability to enable SSO through OAuth2 and not only SAML 2.0

  16. MFA option to be TOTP or SMS or Email

    When the MFA option is released currently the option is:
    1. TOTP
    2. TOTP or SMS or Email.

    Can you make it a check list so we can enable the one we want?
    For example, I only want TOTP and SMS.

  17. Request for improvement of the UI for granting permissions displayed on the content card in Box for Teams

    If you try to grant permission before sending a message, you will see the error message "Return to the main window to perform this action"
    We are aware that this behavior is documented in a support article.
    However, the permission prompts on the content cards are confusing because they seem to require immediate action to grant permissions.
    We would like to see the UI improved so that it is clear that permissions can only be granted after the message has been sent.

     suggestion1:Display a message that lets users know that they cannot grant permission until after they send a message.…

  18. Automated way to manage 2 Step verification for external collaborators

    Provide API support to manage 2 Step verification settings for external collaborators .
    Our use case is to "enable only for select domains/users". It is difficult to impossible to manage this for 1000's of external collaborators via the admin console. looking for an API support here to automate the process of managing the external user's 2 Step verification settings. The API should offer
    1. Add external collaborator domain and specific email id to the 2 step verification
    2. Query status given a domain or user email address
    3. API to remove a given user / domain

  19. Add support for Integrated Windows Authentication for Box Drive login flow

    Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) allows for the following login flow for the webapp:

    1. User logs into Windows
    2. User goes to Box and selects to use SSO to login
    3. When the user is redirected to their Identity Provider, the browser sends the user's OS credentials and the user does not need to enter credentials again
    4. User is logged into Box

    This would provide a more seamless experience for users. In our computer labs, users would sign into Windows, click one button in the Box Drive login window, and have access to their Box content natively in the OS.

  20. Download all versions of a single file at once

    If a file has multiple versions, it would be great to be able to download all these versions at once in a single Zip file.

    For exemple, if I have a Word file named "test.docx" with 247 versions of it, you would be able to download a single file named "test.zip" containing 247 Word files, named "test(1).docx", "test(2).docx", …, "test(247).docx".
