  1. Transfer the workflow ownership of the existing user

    Currently we are not able to transfer the workflow ownership, while the user is active?(I know we can transfer when the admin delete the user)

    When the user moved to the other department and we want to transfer the workflow to his/her teammates, before he/she leave the department.

  2. Button in the Admin Console to remove the existing 2FA without logging in as that User

    We currently have to search for the user in the admin console, log in as them, go to their personal settings, remove their existing method, then return to the admin console. If there was a button in the admin console to remove the existing 2FA without logging in as that person, it would be really handy

  3. The new design of box admin is missing the ability to invite users to your enterprise that already have a box account.

    When you are adding an existing user to your box enterprise account, the new design does not have the option to invite the user to join. You only get an error that. The user already exists.

  4. Search Existing Templates when creating a new Box Note from a Template

    As a Box user, when I am creating a new Box Note from a template, I want to be able to search existing templates (by template name), so that I can easily re-use existing templates created by others in my organization instead of scrolling through the template list.

  5. Editing existing tag names

    It would be helpful to edit an existing tag name, to make it more descriptive, and have that propagate to everything already tagged. For example, I would like to change a first-round tag of "Minutes" to something more descriptive, such as "Minutes Admin Meetings." Right now, I can simply create a new tag and retag all the appropriate items with the prior. HOWEVER, every time that begin to type the name of the new tag, the old not-used one will keep appearing.

    If editing an existing name is too complicated, is there a way to delete an old unused tag…

  6. Copy or Duplicate existing groups

    Would appreciate the ability to create copies of existing Groups, mainly for its members - not so much the permissions given to that group.

    My use case: We've got an "ALL" group that has access to numerous folders. There is one user that does not want access to one of those folders. So I'd like to be able to copy the "ALL" group and remove that user, rather than re-create our "ALL" group which has a lot of members.

    There also is no good way to bulk add members to a group. Typing each person is cumbersome, it'd also…

  7. Apply retention policy to all existing content

    Currently with Governance, you have the ability to apply a retention policy to all new content. This policy does not touch any of the existing content within the domain. This is a large issue for an enterprise that wants to apply a single retention policy to the entire domain.

  8. Add group members to new group by combining existing groups

    I created a new group that will have all the people in 2 existing groups as members. This will be over 70 users in total. Currently I have to enter every single user, but I would like to simply add all members of group A and all members of group B to create the membership of the new group.

  9. Include "Box User ID" in user export

    Please include the Box User ID in the Export Users report generated from the "Users & Groups" menu item and using the "Export Users" button.

    Groups
    Storage
    Restrict External Collaboration
    Status
    Storage Used
    Last Password

  10. Add Box User IDs to the Managed User Report

    It would be great to have the Box User IDs added into the Managed User Report. Currently, when we deprovision a large batch of accounts, we have to run a report in the Box CLI to grab the Box IDs and then add them to the Managed User Report.

    Adding the Box User IDs into the Managed User Report will help us simplify our deprovision process.

  11. Retain user name in comment/ task even after user is removed.

    When user is removed, all comment/ previous will be display as "Anonymous User". For customer who rely on comment/ tasks it is confusing to keep track on which account posted what.

  12. Allow conversion of existing Salesforce files to Box

  13. Augment existing collaborator permissions in inherited subfolders

    Scenario:

    Folder A is shared with User X with Viewer permission
    Folder B is a subfolder of Folder A, on which User X requires Editor permission

    According to support, the only way to accomplish this in the web UI is to first remove User X as a collaborator on Folder A, add them as an Editor on Folder B, and then re-add them as a Viewer on Folder A

    This is clunky, annoying, and results in a lot of extra notifications.

    Clearly this is supported by the underlying file system because you can do it directly with the Box CLI:

    This is not planned for our current roadmap. We will let you know if anything changes.

  15. Run User Activity Report with API

    We would like to be able to run User Activity Report through the API.
    Users, groups and affected folders/files can be selected as a filter to export/run this report against. But today, keyboard typings and mouse clicks are required to select each filtering, which would be unrealistic to specify tens or hundreds of users, groups, folders and/or files.
    Thus, We would need API to utilize/filter User Activity Report at scale.

    To make the capture and backup of user content on our users' local systems easier, Box Drive should have an option to automatically select and sync the contents of user folders on both Macs and Windows computers (e.g., Desktop, Documents, etc.).

  18. User-Level Sharing Controls: Control sharing permissions at the User level

    This request is specific to controlling external sharing permissions and defaults at the user level. For example, an admin should be able to permit whether a user can generate Open Shared Links (e.g., disable open links per user), invite external collaborators, and the default shared link permission that is generated by that user, even if those users are within a folder that has external sharing enabled.

    We are currently focused on building groups for access to 1st and 3rd party apps and specific enterprise settings in Box rather than focusing on groups or individual users for sharing controls. Uservoice request here: pulse.box.com/admin/v3/suggestions/36670615

    To achieve granular sharing controls, you can explore using Box Shield to classify sensitive content and set access policies to that content.

  19. Set "SSO Required"/"SSO Enabled" for each user

    The current "SSO Required" is for all managed users.
    When creating "administrator user and general user" as a managed user, there are the following problems.
    -It is necessary to create an administrator user ID on the IdP side.
    -When accessing as an administrative user, it takes time and effort to log in from the IdP and access Box.
    -A license fee will also be charged on the IdP side.

    If we can set "SSO required" and "SSO enabled" for each user, the problem will be solved.
