Collaborator Report for live snapshot of all current collaborators
The current Collaborations report shows all collaborations that have gone out (pending, accepted, past invites etc.) instead of just showing a live snapshot of all collaborations. Customers would like a way to pull a list of all users currently in their tenant, both managed and external, and the items they have access to. Essentially taking the information from "Users and Groups" and being able to export this for both managed and external users.

Push information on AD information in Box Drive for first time login (e.g. tenant name)
To allow for configuration that allows Box Drive to understand that the first authentication should be against the client's SSO provider, rather than prompting the user to enter their email address. Some options that were mentioned were to allow Box Drive to read a value containing the user's email address, or to configure Box Drive to launch a customer specific authentication page.

annotate
When adding an annotation to a file, it would be nice to make it a once stop annotate and enable the person that i am @ mentioning to annotate the file and not require the owner to first extend the file through permissions, then go annotate. Annotation should be one process for sharing and extending annotation.

Generate csv for the users with permission
let's say you have a subfolder with multiple users with the same permission, and want to create another subfolder for the similar purpose for the same users. Wouldn't it be great if you can generate a user list as csv or any other format, so you can easily copy and paste the users to invite? I know an admin can create a group but dont you think a regular user should be able to do the similar thing too?

Administrative Controls around shared links
For Shared Links that are open to "People with the link" and no expiration date across our organization, we'd like to have the ability to:
- Disable these links up across all or selected users
- Restrict settings for the majority of our users so that all of these shared links have an expiration of 60 days or less
- Allow only a select group of users the ability to share links with way without expiration dates

Ability of business to enable/disable password protection of documents/folders function
The functionality allowing users to password protect documents and folders, should be manageable at the top level, as this function may cause problems with managing content if over used by users.
A simple enable/disable toggle for each group of users (Previewer, Editor etc) - so that users may/may not have the ability to password protect documents/folders depending on their permissions in particular locations
Admin Console - reporting locations and details of password protected documents and folders

Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users.
Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users. We use classifications and access policies for specific domain whitelisting. We currently do not allow external collaboration with personal webmail domains for obvious reasons. But some departments like recruiting would need to share content with personal webmail domains. We would like to create a classification/access policy combo that permits this but is ONLY visible to specified users/groups. Thinking of a option like how you can whitelist relay and other features for certain users. Have that same option with classifications. That way the whole org can't use that…

Hide Apps Link from Blue Left Menu
Our organization is using Box to store controlled information so to best control the sharing of our documents we are only enabling a very limited number of 3rd party app integrations. We have disabled most of the apps via Enterprise settings. However users still can see the Apps menu and we are receiving a lot of negative feedback related to integrations available that as an Enterprise we will not enable. Is it possible to hide the "Apps" in the Blue left menu for non-admin users via group or other action?

Ability to Disable or Choose email Notification when Inviting Collaborators
We would like to have the option to email or not email a collaborator when sharing a content in Box. Example use case is when cleaning up Box permissions (group vs individual) and the Admin needs to do that seamlessly without bombarding he whole organization with Box invites to files/folders hey already have access to. Specially required for Internal collaborators.
Providing access permissions does not always require an invite given the way Box works, the internal user will simply see the content when they access their Box Drive or he portal.1 vote -
Enhanced Granular Access Controls for External Collaborators
Current Limitation:
- Existing shared link and external collaborator settings apply a uniform 30-day restriction across all external users
- No ability to create differentiated access rules for trusted partners or affiliated organizationsProposed Feature:
Implement a multi-tier external collaboration access control system that allows:
1. Configurable access duration and permissions based on organizational relationship
2. Ability to create exception groups with extended or permanent access
3. Granular control to distinguish between:
- Completely external users (standard 30-day restriction)
- Trusted partners/affiliated organizations (customizable access duration)
- Specific trusted domains with distinct access rulesUse Case Example:

Folder Settings
It would be great if we could go into the folder settings and have a setting for disable move, copy or delete. We would like this on the group folder level only it would not affect the sub folders. So somebody couldn't come in and drag a huge folder that never needs to be copied or deleted, it would prevent that. It would require the folder to be able to do it if the action ever needed to be done

Custom Columns (with sort) for Users and Groups
Custom Columns (with sort) for Users and Groups
The current Admin console defaults to the below columns with no way to customize for better productivity:
Name
Email
User ID
Role
Status
Storage UsedThis request would allow the Main admin account to customize which columns are displayed while looking at your Users and Groups page. These custom column choices can be chosen from the custom Tags (which are already a feature). Allowing important information to be seen at a glance rather than having to go into each user to get additional pertinent information.
Some examples of custom columns…1 vote -

Report on who has Box Sync enabled from User Permissions
Admins can enable Box Sync per individual user under the Permissions in the Users&Groups tab in the Admin Console. I would like a report that can pull which users has Box Sync enabled.

Policies: Add Ability to Apply Them Only to Selected Users/Groups
For some use cases, we would like to enable a Policy (Upload, Download, or Sharing) in Box, but have that Policy scoped to only apply to certain users/groups.
1 voteThank you for this note!
This is a feature we’ve considered in the past but do not plan to build in the short term. This may become a higher priority with more customer demand.

Allow AppUser in developer sandbox to use API to invite groups to folders in production.
User groups belong to the production, and production-ready applications are not supported.
Therefore, we cannot invite groups to folders in production.2 votes -
Make the administrative contact modifiable.
The topmost administrative account is exposed in the account details for every user. Can you make this modifiable? We use separation of account privileges in our IT units, so each member has both a standard and a privileged account. Because my privileged account has those rights, it is listed in the contact information for our Box tenant. It sure would be nice to have it set to a monitored group email address...I'm not always in the office and an email could sit for quite a while if I'm on leave or ill.

NetSuite integrations security enhancement.
Allow the creation of a folder in Box that is secured by box, but the record is attached to the transaction. For example, under bill payments adding a box folder that can hold the contract for that specific payment. Contracts have more confidential information that needs to be secured. Since security in NetSuite is best used as a group, not all who can see if a payment was made, should see the details of the contract. Therefore the select folder should allow more restrictive security, managed by box.
