Ability to create a custom group name that will be displayed on the collaborator list without affecting the SSO integration
Currently, groups only have names unlike user accounts that have names and aliases. However, since we have SSO groups enabled, we have found that is impossible to rename groups without causing issues.
Because of SSO groups, we had to have a specific naming convention for our groups so we can know which groups to send to Box. All our group names begin with COMPANYBOXPD and then the corresponding team name. Since these groups are shown as collaborators, it will be nice to be able to edit the group to display a user friendly group rather than the technical name we have.
If I change the group name, any new users do not get added to the group, instead a new group is created with the name we are sending to Box.
My request would be for a way to create a custom group name that will be displayed on the collaborator list without affecting the SSO integration. So maybe a new field called Display Name is added that can be edited but the actual name remains whatever is being sent via SSO.

Thank you for the submission! This is a reasonable request. However, we will need to hear from additional customers before prioritizing this request.
