Setting a non-private custom URL using BOX API

Hi @user193 , welcome to the forum.

It should be possible using the vanity name.

Something like this:

curl --location --request PUT 'https://api.box.com/2.0/files/1147571642464?fields=shared_link' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer 1!lf...oLw.' \
--data '{
  "shared_link": {
    "access": "open",
    "vanity_name": "about_box_platform",
    "permissions": {
      "can_download": true,
      "can_preview": true,
      "can_edit": true
    }
  }
}'

This requires that the enterprise administrator enables this feature in the admin console:

Let us know if this helps.
