We have a recurring file that is created and sent to a folder via email.  Are there any automatic conflict resolution options (e.g. append a timestamp) to ensure that we do not lose existing files with the same name?  Thank you!

    Hi Dion, 

    Welcome to Box Community and glad to help! 

    You may want to consider upgrading your Box account to utilize our Version History as Box overwrites a file and and updates the version each time you:

    • edit the file using an online editor, such as Box Edit, Microsoft Office Online, or the Google editing suite)
    • edit the file within your Box Sync or Box Drive folder
    • use the Upload New Version button on the Web app
    • upload a file into a folder that has an existing file with the exact same name in it on the Box Web app.

    Hope it helps!
