Support for Spotlight on macOS is out with the release of version 2.53 (https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/53361463306515-Box-Drive-v2-53-Release-Notes).
The request will be left in the "gathering feedback" stage, as Finder/File Explorer search functionality does remain limited.

use @mention in the Office suites of software (Words, Excel, PowerPoint)
Currently, we are able to do commenting of the document in Box by using the @mention. But we are not able to do the same when we are editing document in the native Ms Office software eg Words, Excel & PowerPoint. The @mention does not work.
Would like to have the same feature when we are working in the native document?

Enhanced Lock/Unlock on Box Drive for CAD files
I hope the Enhanced lock/unlock experience, which is currently only available for Office files, be made available for CAD files and others as well.

Ability to download comments and print comments
Would like the ability to download and/or print comments associated with a file. Perhaps via additional selections to "Download Comments" and "Print w/Comments".
I understand downloading comments may need to be a separate file as the content could be in various application types and comments are not created in that document type. Printed files convert to PDF so it would be great if the comments could be converted to PDF and added directly to the printed file.
Downloading and printing comments has been a request on the Box Community site from multiple people who have also listed some of their…

Multi-Branding for 1 instance (EID) / Multiple Custom Branding Themes per EID
The ability to manage several subsidiaries under 1 instance

Large Folder Operation email notification when the operation is finished
I would like to have the user and admin to receive an email notification once the large folder operation (LFO) is finished so that each counterpart knows when the operation is finished.
62 votesWe have already made sure that the Content remains available to all the collaborators during a Transfer & Delete LFO. We are working on ways to do the same with other forms of LFO. We believe this approach will be a much better productivity accelerator for our customers.
For the purposes of this request to allow for email notification, this still remains in our roadmap to evaluate what would be the remaining use cases that will required an email to be sent.

Changing Microsoft label (Sensitivity) in Office after enabling Co-Authoring
After we enabled Co-Authoring, we are not able to change the Microsoft label (Sensitivity) when we open the document e.g. in Word because it is greyed out in Office and Box takes it from the Office file. It would be great if the possibility of changing the Microsoft label (Sensitivity) was enabled.

Save Sorting Preferences
When using Box in-browser, create a setting to change the default sorting preference. For example, so you can make the default sorting for all folders Name, Ascending. This is not currently an option and means every time you open a folder you need to manually resort it, as the default sorting is always set to Updated, Ascending.

Automatic email response for file request submitter
Would like a feature whereby the person submitting files using Box File Request receives an automatic confirmation email with a customizable message. For example, after the submitter uploads files using the File Request web widget, that person gets a email to the effect of, "Thank you for contacting us. A team member will review your submittal and follow up within 24 hours." The person would be required to provide an email address but not required to have a Box account. Many of our external customers send us application materials using File Request, and then they contact us separately wanting to…

Box Shield MIP Integration with GCC High
For customers with GCC High environments (Microsoft), Purview is not currently able to be integrated using the Box Shield integration (as it can be with the commercial version of Purview) to map the MIP Sensitivity labels with Box Shield's classification labels. We would like to see Box Shield to be able to integrate with Purview when it lives in Microsoft's non-commercial environments, including GCC High and DOD.

Add CC recipient to the request (in progress not at completion)
Ability to CC someone on a signature request and have them receive their copy before completion of the request.
Box sign only allows the CC to receive the document after the request has been complete.

Ability to change the Date Field format
Currently the date field is automatically filled based on the signer's PC device language.
When the language is set in Japanese, the date will be written in Japanese but when it is set in English, the date will be written in English.
It would be great if we can set the language/format of the date to be the same when there is multiple signers with different language setting.36 votes -
Save local copy of Mobile upload when using Capture feature
Some customers in legal and insurance industries utilize the Capture feature in the Box mobile app to upload sensitive content for legal proceedings and insurance claims (i.e. depositions and statements). If an upload fails when leveraging the Capture feature, that file is not saved locally, and it is not possible to re-attempt the upload. This has major ramifications on the customer's business and legal processes, and should be addressed by auto-saving a copy of the Capture file locally, especially in cases where the upload attempt fails

Fix the Preview of Excel file versions
Currently, previewing older versions of Excel files does not work. No matter what version is selected, the current version of the file is displayed. The causes users to think that versioning is not happening OR that they have lost all prior versions. When users download a previous version of the file, it has the correct content for that version.

FIX the SEARCH to search exact terms and support advanced search parameters
There are several major issues here, search should be powerful in order to make the tool as useful as possible. It is to the point now that we are storing so much information on Box that not having a search tool that actually works is causing us serious headache and loss of productivity.
Search returns results for all forms of a word, how is it helpful to be absolutely unable to narrow a search. For example, if I search for "Government" (yes, even when using quotes) I get results including government, governance, govern, etc. Thanks Box, you have now included…

Relay：Enable/disable the "Invite assignees as Viewers/Editors" option
A new feature has been added to Relay called "Invite assignees as Virwers/Editors".
Perhaps, it is possible that, due to a mistake, users who should not be collaborating are automatically collaborated with.
However, in the current specification, the checkbox for this feature cannot be changed from enabled.We would like the checkbox to be able to be unchecked optionally.
誤操作により、本来権限を付与されるべきではないユーザーがコラボレートされてしまう可能性があるため、
チェックボックスのチェックを任意で外せるようにしてほしい。31 votesWe are conducting user feedback sessions to gather more information

Block root shared folder renaming
I found it very disappointing when every user with editor's permissions can rename (and probably even delete) root folders. This is the absolutely most typical scenario with shared folders, and everything from cheapest NAS to Azure Sharepoint can prevent renaming (or worse deleting) root folders.
I really miss the typical R/W user - Editor without permissions to delete/rename the root folder.

Get Rid of Waterfall Permissions - Allow Subfolder Security To Be Set Differently
It is absolutely ridiculous that a company as large as Box is using waterfall permissions for all enterprise accounts.
In a business environment, it is absolutely necessary to be able to set specific permissions on subfolders within a large data folder that all users have access to. This is a simple feature included with every other cloud file provider we've ever used.
Needs to be included ASAP.

File request - Block upload of domains not on enterprise allowlisted domains
For File Request where Enterprise requires user to login prior to submission, would like an additional security check for Enterprises that only allow for external collaboration from allowed domains as listed in the Enterprise console. If the domain is on the list then allow for file request upload, if domain is not on the allowlisted domains, block upload.
