    This is not currently on our product roadmap. Please share additional use cases or feedback and we will reconsider given enough demand.

    Ability to report on content that hasn't been accessed, modified etc after a certain period of time and ideally take action e.g. delete or move to archive.

  7. Group Admins should be able to invite co-admins to groups

    A group admins tried to add a user to the group as a member, but received the error message 'User does not have permission to edit users of this group'. The user he was trying to add was a Co-Admin for Box.

    With this, if the Co-Admin has the administrative privilege to "Manage Groups" attributed to her, then she can go in and add herself to the group.

    If not, the main Admin of the enterprise would have to add that Co-Admin to the group. This complicates the process of adding users to a group.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap because there has not been enough demand from customers.

    This is currently not planned, but we will consider with additional customer demand.

  9. Ability to disable "user added another user to your folder as a collaborator" email notifications.

    We've built an app that centers around adding users to folders owned by a service account. We had over 150k notifications in a single day, accounting for 80% of their email traffic to a single inbox for a brief period. We've have added a rule to block these incoming emails, but we are not satisfied with this solution and urgently request the ability to turn these off.

  10. Just in time User Provisioning / Licensing

    The current way of licensing is old school. Instead, you could leverage Okta's just-in-time provisioning: https://help.okta.com/en/prev/Content/Topics/Security/Security_Authentication.htm?cshid=Security_Authentication_JIT#Security_Authentication_JIT

    Then (with SSO required & on the fly), Box grants everyone in an org an acct after logging in thru SSO, they're auto-provisioned a Box instance, and a license is registered/"billed" to company.

  11. True 'Select All' - Expand 'Select All' Beyond Just the Current Page of a Folder

    REQUEST: Add an option for 'True' Select All such that when a user performs a Select All (via command+a / control+a), they have a new option to also select all items in the current folder, not just the ones on that current page.

    BACKGROUND: When folders have a lot of items, there can be many pages and pages of items. The webapp's current 'Select All' functionality ONLY allows users to select all items from the given page (which is only 20 items for most users since the 'items per page' default is 20, though users can manually increase it to…

  12. Option to request access to a folder

    Request: If an external or internal user is forwarded a Box folder invite and they are not a current collaborator, they should have a mechanism to request the access and such request should automatically go to folder Owner/Co-owner for approval or decline. This should be done in a way that does not display or communicate the folder owners name.

    Rationale: We have many external users that are part of large teams. Adding all (and maintaining) in the team is not feasible. These external users often forward the folder invites.

  14. Allow for file or folder name to wrap

    Longer file or folder names do not display the whole name in the new UI.

    We have specific naming conventions that are longer than the current character count.

    The old web app allowed for wrapping. Please restore this functionality.

  20. When attempting upload and storage is full, clarify error message to identify whose storage is full

    Right now it says, "Uploading this will put you over your allocated space," even if uploading to a folder with another owner whose storage is the problem.
