  2. Check the number of API calls from the developer console of the user who executed the App

    Platform report could be used to confirm API calls. But it requires authorities to export.

    Display the number of API calls in use for each app in the developer console to check if the number of API calls exceeds the limit.

  6. Please make the email addresses of users with pending invitations accessible via the API.

    We are automating the invitation process using the API. However, when inviting external users who have not yet created a Box account, they remain in a pending state.

    For users who remain pending, we would like to send reminder emails, but the API does not provide email address information for external users when retrieving collaboration information.

    As a result, we need to check this information manually through the GUI.
    To enhance automation, we request that the email address information of pending collaborations be included in the API response.

    招待保留中ユーザーのメールアドレスをAPIで取得できるようにしてほしい

    APIを使用して招待プロセスを自動化しています。
    しかし、まだBoxアカウントを作成していない外部ユーザーを招待した場合、保留中の状態のままになります。
    保留中のままのユーザーにはリマインダーメールを送りたいのですが、APIでコラボレーション情報を取得しても外部ユーザーのメールアドレス情報が提供されません。
    そのため、この情報を手動でGUIで確認する必要があります。
    自動化を強化するために、APIのレスポンスに保留中のコラボレーションのメールアドレス情報を含めていただけるよう要望します。

  7. I want to search for folders by tag prefixes.

    Could you provide an API endpoint that allows searching for folders by tag prefixes? This would streamline the process by eliminating the need to manually retrieve all folders and filter them based on tags.

  8. Request that multiple file requests not be created when creating a File Request using the API

    When creating file requests using the API, multiple file requests can be created independently for one folder.
    In order to avoid this phenomenon, I would like an API to be prepared to retrieve the created file request ID from the folder.
    Or please provide some other workaround.

  10. Allow Admin/Co-Admin to access shared link basic info

    When using BoxItem.Info itemInfo = BoxItem.getSharedItem(api, sharedLink); to retrieve basic information about a shared link, Box returns a 404 when the admin/co-admin doesn't have specific permissions. However, it's possible to see the basic information when you view a shared link report. We're essentially trying to get the same information as the shared link report is able to pull for all files/folders. Discussion of the suggestion is here:

  12. Content Explorer Default View Property

    Box Content Explorer - allow an attribute to set default view to Grid (Thumbnail) view.

    This view option is available on the Embed iframe, but strangely not an option for Content Explorer - means that all of my users need an extra click each time). I cannot trigger a click as Content Explorer is already in an iFrame

  14. (API) Add 'can_change_expiration' to the {file|folder}.permissions

    We are publishing a 3rd-party app for Box.
    A setting has been added to prevent users from changing the expiration date of shared links.
    When this setting is enabled, sending POST of JSON containing 'sharedlink.unsharedat' will return a 400 Bad Request error
    Please add a 'canchangeexpiration' value to the permissions attribute of the file/folder object so that the correct POST requests parameter can be specified.

  15. Allow to Update Description in the Upload Section in File Request via API

    We would like the ability to customize the description field in the Upload Section of the file request via API.
    Currently via API we are only able to update the Header and the Header Description and the
    description under the upload section is only editable via the webapp.

    We are looking to automate the file request via API from certain templates. Certain information will get updated depending on what template we desire which includes the need to update the description under the file upload but currently that is not available via API

  17. Support for passing of special characters (as-is) in query (Box Metadata Query API)

    Per the suggestions ...

    Use of an "=" could be utilized
    Unfortunately, this would break the ability for our search bar to also do loose matches around the "typed search term"
    (e.g. "Broadway &" query will not return "Broadway & Commercial"

    Use of "%" wildcard to replace noted special character
    Unfortunately, the results will then be too varied. Any characters will be up for substitution.
    (e.g. "C&R" query will then also return "car", "candor", corridor", etc.)

    *** Could we confirm if there is an appropriate way for special characters to be passed and recognized as-is?

    The above suggested workarounds would…

  18. API- Developer token

    Hi team, what would be great is to get the possibility when we develop an API to have a token valid for more than 60 minutes.
    Sometimes, to validate the principle of a dev, it's needs more than 1h
    maybe an other solution would be to create a private app with small validation as the purpose is an internal specific need.
