  1. Limit the amount of data a user can download to prevent data theft by employees.

    Limit accidental or intentional bulk downloads.

    An ex-employee intentionally or accidentally connected his Network Attached Storage device to his Box account, and it downloaded big chunks of our Box data. We want to prevent very large amounts of data (client work and IP) from being downloaded by users, for example, within a logged-in session, within a set timeframe or by the size of the folder (ie. large folders over a specific size containing folders).

    This could be set per user with an enterprise-level default eg. 5GB. If someone tries to bulk download, the admin is altered. Users can…

  3. Box Sign mask user inputs from other signers

    Currently Box Sign fields are visible to all users in the signing process. When users provide sensitive information (PII, PHI, financial information) as part of a signature process, we need to be able to hide that sensitive data from other signers in the process.

    Ex: Application for benefits reveals assets and income from the applicant but an approver in the process should not be able to see those individual fields (SSN, bank account numbers, disability status).

  4. Report on user logout behavior

    Add a checkbox/filter in the User Activity report to allow admins and co-admins to report on when users log out. Currently there's a filter for logins but not for log out actions.

  5. User Offboarding (File/Folder Moves)

    I’d like to suggest an improvement to the user offboarding process. When we delete a user, it would be very helpful to have more granular control over where that user’s files and folders are moved within the tenant. This way we can choose someone and then maybe a subfolder they want the data placed in.

    Specifically, having the option to:
    - Choose the destination folder for the disabled user’s content.
    - Include checkbox option to include trash bin contents along with the rest of their files.

    This would make the offboarding process more efficient and ensure nothing…

  6. Additional User Details in admin

    When a user is created or provisioned, it would be highly beneficial to have the capability to add additional details about the user that can be displayed in the user report. For instance, we would like to include the user's department and their cost centre as two separate fields that can be reported on. This would allow for a more granular level of detail in the user report, making it easier to categorize and analyze user data based on these specific attributes.

    Furthermore, it would be advantageous to have an insights chart that leverages these additional fields. For example,…

  7. Keep Cost Center Field populated when user invited as a Managed user

    If creating an account and you have to send the user an Invite to come over as a managed user, the Cost Center field (If filled out) will not stay after the user accepts the invite. Forcing you to have to go back and re-add info you may have already included.

    I would request that if the Cost Center field is populated on a user creation, that it remain after an invited user accepts their invite to stop double work.

  8. Enable shared link expiration notifications for user that enabled the shared link

    For a closed folder structure, where the primary admin owns all content, Box should give the ability to 1) disable shared link expiration notifications for folder owners and 2) enable them specifically for the users that created the shared link to begin with.

    Even if the former will not be changed, the latter behavior would be important for a closed folder structure.

  9. Allow reporting of user search activity

    Allow reporting of user search activity.

    We would like to get statistics on how many times a day users search on Box. 
    And what searched. who was search.
    This is currently not available in the User Activity Report.

    that research for user's searching demand is an important knowledge data for admin and usage development.

    Appreciate.

  11. Ability to control access to Box Mobile App per User/Group

    Ability to control access to Box Mobile App per User/Group.

    I file the request on behalf of the customer.
    The customer would like to control access to Box Mobile App per User/Group but it seems that Box can only disable Box Mobile App per Enterprise at this moment.

  12. Include Specific Changes to User Privileges in User Activity Report

    When running a user activity report that displays changes to a user's privileges, would like to view the specific settings that were edited.

    Example: A user's/co-admin's privileges for the "Restrict External Collaboration" was checked at an unknown time. Would like to be able to check which user made this change and when the change was made.

  14. Admin Console Collaborations Report - Offer ability to filter by one External User, rather than all users

    Admin Console Collaborations Report - Offer ability to filter by one External User, which is faster, rather than pull data for all users, which can take way too long.

  15. Change the Last Login on the User Details report with Last Activity

    The Last Login date of the User Details report doesn't show the real last login time of each users.
    As it's misleading, it'better to add the Last activity date instead of Last Login.

  16. If the owner of a Box Relay workflow is a “Deleted User”, there needs to be a way to transfer the owner to an administrator.

    After creating a workflow in Box Relay, there are cases where the owner of the workflow is deleted by a script, etc., but the owner remains as a “Deleted User”.

    Need the ability to take over the workflow of a Box Relay that has become a “deleted user” to an administrator or other user.

    Reason:

    This is because the workflow creator still has the owner rights, and even the system administrator cannot delete the workflow, so it remains as trash.

  18. Update the user detail report so that the administrator can see status of the automatic acceptance of invitations

    Invitation auto-acceptance settings can be changed for each user, but may be "pending" when an admin invites a managed user to a folder.
    Please add an item so that administrators can check the setting status in the user details report whether the managed user has automatic invitation approval disabled or enabled.

    <ユーザーの詳細レポートに招待の自動承諾設定をどう設定しているかを確認できるよう項目を追加してほしい>
    招待の自動承認の設定は各ユーザーで変更できますが、管理者が管理対象ユーザーをフォルダに招待する際に「保留中」になることがあります。
    管理対象ユーザーが招待の自動承認を無効にしているのか、有効にしているのか、管理者がユーザーの詳細レポートで設定状況が確認できるよう項目を追加していただきたいです。

  19. Block single user

    Our security has deemed a single email as suspicious. We would like to block this single email from connecting to our Box, or being collaborated into our Box.

    With Shield we can block the whole domain, but that approach is too broad and would limit too many valid email addresses.
