Users would like to have a setting to enable/disable updates to the files/documents that are attached to a Canvas. If update to files is enabled, the owner of the Canvas should receive a prompt at their next access to the Canvas, if an file/document is available in CDF, so they can decide whether to update or not to update (permanently or decide later), depending on the use case of Canvas.

Hi @rsiddha,

Thank you for submitting the request! 
This is definitely something that we want to enable in the product. Currently is part of our roadmap for this year. 

Thank you,
Andreea.

@Andreea Oprea  We have the same need.  We need the ability to “lock” a canvas to prevent users changing it, but also “lock” a canvas to prevent files/time series from updating when the source system changes.  This especially applies to a canvas used for RCA’s.
