update Jan 2025, the workaround I described earlier no longer works as it used to.
Specific URL will work, but external user is unable to access metadata search panel to modify the searchAn error occurred while saving the comment John Nickell

Same general gist as request: 39483574. But if the external user is given a url that specifies the metadata template, they can search on that metadata template.
Not sure if this is a loophole or a workaround.John Nickell

If the same external user is given a URL that has the metadata template already specified they can then search on that one metadata template. Is this a workaround or a loophole?

I could have sworn that previously all of my folders were sorted by date (most recent first) now they seem to be sorted by name. I'm not sure if something changed or I'm misremembering, but it's pretty annoying to sort a folder by update date (recent first) and then need to do it for each of the subfolders that I'm navigating through.

My use/need is for powershell Box CLI, but we could also benefit from a single endpoint to get all items within a folder recursively. Trying to build the logic and wait for multiple API calls to return makes this very tiresome.
In our use case we are trying to get count of all files in a directory. At present we have to limit to just the total overall file count. I would envision this API endpoint enabling us to see count of files _by_type_ as well. -

This capability is not currently planned, but we’ll keep you updated here. Thank you for your feedback!

This idea sounds really similar to this one that just got promoted to "researching"

If possible this could leverage Box Edit's access to the local machine?

This is "doable" now, but the results are inconsistent. Sometimes a quick access link will take you to a version of the folder where you cannot see the Box Drive overlays (like file upload errors) other times you can. The inconsistency causes confusion

Scheduling feature set is close to what we need, but the inability to specify the "time/hour" that a report would start or be ready by is a hang-up. Currently I had scheduled multiple reports for 1st of the month. The reports take a while to run and today they didn't start until after 10am (local time).
This leads to three issues -
- First is confusion if the schedule is working.
- Second is additional workload on the reporting system is possible because I initiated the reports manually (and then the schedule kicked in on top of my manual initiation).
- Third this meant the data was not available when I needed it and caused downstream delays.
