Add column for Modified date, and allow sorting on it.
It would be really handy to be able to add a column for and sort based on "Modified date" field. Currently the "Updated" column is not useful if you are doing content migrations from outside sources. While the files maintain the "modified date", they get an "Updated date" of the day it was migrated.
We are considering migrating our existing LAN contents to Box. Our users frequently need to sort on last modified date. We are uploading all data to Box and retaining the original date stamps where possible. Sorting is key.

It has been quite some time since the 2022 response, so I would appreciate it if you could reconsider.
Since I believe the update date for the current specifications is important in the sense that it cannot be tampered with via APIs or similar means, I think it would be desirable to have a feature that allows administrators to choose, either in the enterprise settings or the owner’s account settings, which one to use as the sorting column in the UI.

Our company transferred our entire file server data to Box. Any files that were transferred over cannot be searched by the modified date because the search results shows them all on the date our files were transferred into Box. The date they were uploaded is not helpful, we want to search the last day the files were modified please. This data exists and I have no idea why Box cannot search that data??

Not having a Date Created column is a deal breaker. I can't believe this doesn't exist.

I put 88 photos into Box, but can't sort them by the metadata 'created' or 'modified' as they only show by when they were put into Box. The date and time stamp is critically important for the use of these photos.

This is one of the most important files that we search for and with as it allows us to narrow the field of files down quickly and rapidly access recently accessed files.

This is a must have option or finding a provider that gives us this option.
