We are building a web-based LLM platform (similar to Claude and ChatGPT) and are planning to integrate with Box via MCP (Model Context Protocol). We have noted that Box hosts a remote MCP server at https://mcp.box.com and would like to proceed with the integration. Before doing so, we have a few prerequisite questions:
1. MCP Integration Prerequisites: What are the prerequisites to integrate with Box's MCP server? Is registration or access approval required before connecting?
2. Redirect URL / Whitelist Requirement: For OAuth-based MCP authentication, do we need to register or whitelist any redirect URLs on your end? If yes, where do we submit or register them?
3. Marketplace / App Listing: We noticed your integrations page at Box MCP Server - https://developer.box.com/guides/box-mcp#platform-setup-guides, where tools like Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Cursor are listed as MCP-compatible integrations. Since our product is a similar LLM platform, we would like to explore getting listed as well. What is the process to submit or publish our app on this page?
4. Subdomain Architecture: We would like to understand if Box uses subdomain-based architecture for organizations or workspaces — for example, companyname.box.com. If yes, do we need to handle subdomain resolution on our end during the OAuth or MCP integration flow?
5. Admin Console Configuration: We also came across the following in your documentation: "An admin enables MCP in the Box Admin Console and, for custom clients, creates Integration Credentials (OAuth client ID and client secret, redirect URI, and scopes such as Content Actions)."
Could you please share any additional documentation, partner program details, or step-by-step guides related to this configuration?
6. Regional or Other Restrictions: Is the Box MCP server available globally, or are there any regional restrictions, plan-level limitations, or other eligibility requirements that may affect access? We would appreciate any guidance or relevant resources to help us move forward efficiently. Thank you.
