August 2025

August 2025 brought updates to security and administration. The headline is a new integration with Cisco Duo Single Sign-On (SSO), with support for SCIM auto-provisioning.

Cisco Duo SSO Integration with SCIM Auto-Provisioning

Files.com now integrates directly with Cisco Duo Single Sign-On (SSO) as an identity provider for your site. Authenticate your users through Duo and manage them from one place.

The integration supports SCIM auto-provisioning for Duo. Users are automatically created, updated, or deactivated in Files.com based on your Duo directory, so you don't have to manage them manually.

Other Minor Updates

August brought new administrator reports, interface improvements for all users, updates to the Files.com Desktop App, and changes to the API and SDKs.

The new Share Link Report is available to admin users (Site Administrators and Read-only Administrators). It lists all active share links and shows who created each link, how it can be accessed, what permissions it carries, and when it expires. The report also shows who has registered for the link and when they last accessed it.

Folder Usage Audit Report

The new Folder Usage Report is available to Site Administrators. It shows which folders contribute to your site's storage usage. The export accepts options for how many levels deep to display and a minimum folder size to include. Use it to manage your site and run periodic audits.

Web Interface Updates

The File Manager is now simpler to use. Permissions and History are available as tabs of the main view. The Permissions tab gives you more room to manage permissions and handles thousands of individual users. The History tab makes it clear that you're viewing history for the current folder.

You can now generate passwords that follow your site's password rules with a button. The button appears on any page where you can add a password, such as a Share Link or Public Hosting.

Files.com Desktop App

You can now configure the Files.com Desktop App to launch automatically when you start your computer, so your files are ready in Windows Explorer or macOS Finder as soon as you sign in.

The Windows installer for the Files.com Desktop App now always installs into the system scope, which better supports Large Scale Deployments like Microsoft Intune.

Developer Services

The Files.com Terraform provider was updated to fix errors when creating SSH public keys and GPG keys. The keys were created successfully, but Terraform reported an error.

A new Sync resource is available in the API and all SDKs. It will eventually replace the remote server sync type of folder behavior. Syncs can run between two different remote servers without creating a remote server mount.
