1. Setting Folder Autodelete via API

   The automatic deletion date of a folder can be set from the web screen, but it seems that it cannot be set from the API.

   Could you please provide the ability to set this date from the API?

   We have a process that automatically creates thousands of folders using the API, but since it is not possible to set an automatic deletion date, a large number of past folders will continue to remain.

2. API endpoint to return ALL objects (recursively) but simplified to create browser tree

   I am using the jstree library in my application to create a full browser tree of a user's BOX resources. Please create an endpoint to return ALL objects (recursive) available to an authenticated user inside one root folder . These objects would only require the object ID, TYPE, NAME, VERSION and PARENT(parent-id as string instead of parent object). The jstree lib can take this data and create an entire file browsing tree and then users would call up more information when they click on an object. This would greatly reduce the number of API calls to your server and possibly reduce memory usage on your end. My application needs to create this full browser tree anyway to check the status of synced folders and this currently requires multiple consecutive API calls.
