  1. 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

  2. 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 organizations

    Proposed 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 rules

    Use Case Example:
    An organization…

  3. 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…

  4. Create a report with a list of users who have Relay Lite access

    A way to view a list of users who have the [Relay Lite access] check box selected? Such as through reports instead of having to go through each user in Users & Groups.

  5. 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.

    Thank 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.

  6. 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.

  8. Need to be able to circle options

    We have many documents that require a selection to be made, rating service, etc. the text field, check box and radio options are not the best solution for our needs. I chatted with Emma at BOX support and she mentioned adding it here. Is there a way that we can have an additional feature added where, if someone was going to rate on a scale of 0-5, they could circle the option w/o having to download and manually act on the request?

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  13. Restrict day of week and/or times when licensed users can authenticate into Box

    Allow admins the option to restrict which days of the week and/or time of day is allowed for licensed users to authenticate into Box, individually and/or as part of a role/Box Group. This would be helpful for multiple use-cases. Restricting Box access at specific times can assist with ensuring compliance with wage and hour laws, limiting changes that can be made in Box to times when staff will be available to respond and/or address changes, and limiting access during periods where access is not expected or desired by the licensing organization helping to better secure Box content.

  15. Allow someone to customize their Feed to either follow or unfollow users. Sometimes I don't want to see everyones activity

    The Feed page gets so busy sometimes that I never bother really looking at it to make it useful. I would much rather prefer to follow only those users who are on my Team or in my Department. So, being able to "follow" users or groups seems more beneficial.

  17. Box Online Only

    Admins should be able to decide which groups of users are allowed to use Box Drive versus Box online only. Box Online only would increase security in that users would not be able to download files and would be forced to edit/view files in browser only. This helps tremendously in securing data that contractors need to access.

  18. 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?

  19. 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.

  20. I would like to restrict certain people/groups from accessing version history.

    I would like the ability to limit who can access version history. When interacting with external collaborators, it would be nice to limit them from seeing version history, and only allow them to see the most recent version.
