Ability to show/hide the history tab for certain users

[Mario.Molih]

The history of a folder displays actions on its files/subfolders. This could be a security issue. For example: Different users are only allowed to see/access certain subfolders. Via the history of the parent folder they are now able to see existing files/subfolders they shouldn't see.

Is it possible to configure the history in a way, so that users are only able to see actions on files/subfolders in the history which they are allowed to see?

Hi this is not a security issue since that records are read-only and there is no configurations available to exclude history elements.

Maybe that was unfortunate phrasing. Here's a more precise example:

Let's say we have several customers accessing a single folder. In this folder there are subfolders for each customer. Each customer sees only folders he is allowed to see. For business reasons, that is. But if a customer takes a look into the history of the parent folder he is able to see actions performed on files/folders which he actually mustn't see. We want to avoid this.

But what security issue is in that? The user cannot access to those folders/files from the history.

I admit the term "security issue" is a bit misleading. Yes, one can't access those files/folders, but we as a company don't want our customers to see existing files/folders other than the ones they have access to, as well. Like i said, for business reasons.

So it would be nice if there were the possibility to "configure" the informations displayed to our needs. I read from your first comment that's currently not possible? Maybe for a future update?

Well, this feature request is stored. Maybe it will be implemented in the future.
