Add Box connectors
Veritas Alta SaaS Protection supports backup and restore of the following data in the Box environment:
Files and Documents: All files and documents are stored in Box, including documents, spreadsheets, presentations, images, videos, and any other file types.
Version History: Version history of files in Box to retain previous versions and revisions of documents, including the versions that have been trashed.
Shared Files and Folders: Files or folders have been shared with others. All folders and files which are shared with the user. For example, the data to which the user has access is captured in that user's context. If the same folder is shared with ten users, the folder is captured ten times (once for each user). Deduplication is applied, and only the physical copy of the folder is stored.
Box Notes: Notes for collaborative note-taking. The raw file, which is restored properly is backed up.
Set the ACL for captured content to the user.
All tags that are applied to files.
Restore folders and files back to Box.
Missing files can be restored with their entire version history.
Existing files will have only the latest version from Veritas Alta SaaS Protection.
