Box Upload Overwrite/Update only new entries

[vincenastri]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Not related to a problem; however, I am attempting to upload a folder that gets updated daily and use this in a script. I get the 409 conflict error and cannot upload the new additions of the folder.

Describe the solution you'd like

An overwrite of the whole folder upon upload or for the upload command to upload only newly added folders/files

Describe alternatives you've considered

I cannot find one besides manually uploading the subfolders/files

Hi @vincenastri,
currently Box API does not allow for overriding the folder in case of the name conflict. The only option now is either to remove it first or do it the way you do it now - uploading only new items.
I suggest to add your need to Box Pulse. If there are more people that have same needs as you, your request may be prioritised and new API will be added.
Best,
