Box Platform

Box and Bubble.io are linked to call mp4 in Box from Bubble using video tags. I can’t play mp4 files over 50Mbyte via Bubble.io, but I can play 45MByte. Is there a capacity limit or other setting?

I am creating a custom application and would like to integrate Box Sign as part of the application. At the moment, I have a box developer account with two users. I used one user to create the application (in the developer console), and another user will be used to test Box Sign API. I don’t have any issues creating folders or uploading files using the API, but whenever I try to access the Box Sign Endpoint (https://api.box.com/2.0/sign_requests), it returns a 404 “not found” error. This link [ https://developer.box.com/guides/box-sign/ ] explains that the Box Sign API is only available for the following account types: Business, Business Plus, Enterprise, Enterprise Suites, and Enterprise Plus. This might explain why I am getting the 404 error, as I do not have a paid box account, only a developer account. Can someone confirm if the developer account can access the Box Sign Endpoint? I thought the developer account would allow me to complete my development work without restriction befo

When a new file or folder is added to Box it can take “up to 10 minutes” for the new content to be returned by searching (either via the UI or Search API). Is there an API call that will show if the file/folder has been indexed yet?

この記事では、コンテンツの事前チェック、アップロード、更新や分割アップロードなどのBox API機能を活用しながら、Pythonを使用してBoxにファイルを再帰的にアップロードする方法について説明します。 This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://medium.com/box-developer-blog/python%E3%82%92%E4%BD%BF%E7%94%A8%E3%81%97%E3%81%A6box%E3%81%AB%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%AB%E3%83%80%E3%82%92%E5%86%8D%E5%B8%B0%E7%9A%84%E3%81%AB%E3%82%A2%E3%83%83%E3%83%97%E3%83%AD%E3%83%BC%E3%83%89%E3%81%99%E3%82%8B%E6%96%B9%E6%B3%95-dc6a55ce500c?source=rss----a995c24848a3---4

The generate downscoped token is valid for almost one hour. Let’s say i want to invalidate token after 20 minutes(Logout usecase). I am getting the following error, The API returned an error code {“error”:“invalid_request”,“error_description”:“The client is invalid”} The following specified code is not working. box-java-sdk/doc/authentication.md at main · box/box-java-sdk · GitHub Is there any other way, we can achieve this functionality ?

The Box Platform publishes events that can subscribed by applications. These events relate to any actions performed by either normal or service users. This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://medium.com/box-developer-blog/box-user-events-rest-api-python-3eb3d4d8d55?source=rss----a995c24848a3---4

I have a custom Box App that is set up App Token (Server Authentication). This type of config creates a service account and gives us an access token. I’ve had no problem using the Box API in the past with this token as long as the associated service account is given access to the appropriate folers. However, calls to the Box SIGN parts of the API return the following: { “type”: “error”, “code”: “insufficient_scope”, “status”: 403, “message”: “The request requires higher privileges than provided by the access token.”, “help_url”: “http://developers.box.com/docs/#errors”, “request_id”: “0aa1e51ed7348b0df97959af0e579f7e6” } Our admin has granted Box Sign access to this service account and I even re-authorized the app just in case. But I’m still getting this permission error. Are service accounts allowed to use Box Sign API? Keep in mind this uses a static APP TOKEN. It does not use OAuth

So I have been trying to authenticate the Box app with the Python SDK using JWT, but I am getting an error. “BoxOAuthException: Message: Please check the ‘sub’ claim. The ‘sub’ specified is invalid. Status: 400 URL: https://api.box.com/oauth2/token Method: POST” I have crossed checked the “enterprise_id” value which is specified in the config file (the box account which I am currently using is a personal one, so the enterprise in this case was showing as ‘0’). Also providing the python code which was written for this use-case: from boxsdk import JWTAuth, Client auth = JWTAuth.from_settings_file(‘/Users/pratyush/Downloads/0_pvp4byup_config.json’) client = Client(auth) service_account = client.user().get() print(f’Service User Account id is {service_account.id}')

I am using Laravel to query the Box Api endpoints. I am specifically getting an error on the Box File upload api. Here is the piece of code that I am using: Http::asForm() ->withToken($this->accessToken) ->post($this->uploadUrl, $attributes); Here is curl equivalent of the same: curl -H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer {Token}' -d 'attributes%5Bname%5D=test.pdf&attributes%5Bparent%5D%5Bid%5D=12345&file=test.pdf' -X 'POST' 'https://upload.box.com/api/2.0/files/content' Please help.

Hello, I am working on a Python integration that requests Box API. My goal is as follows: to set up an automation that invites one or more individuals to collaborate on a file/folder. Once the invitation is accepted, an approval task is created on the file (or on each file within a folder) and assigned to the same person. However, how can I invite a user who does not have a Box account? The request to create a collaboration requires an object of type ‘User (Collaborations)’. Yet, I only have the email address and not a user ID. Thank you in advance for helping me through my issue. Antoine

During my sandbox app testing, I was shocked that, as a Signer, I could DELETE text fields that are for the Sender / (tagged as 0) And then I could set the text to anything I wanted. Is there a way to FORCE READ-ONLY on Sender text fields (which should be the default anyway)?? Note: I was switching to Text Fields from Dropdowns, as Dropdowns are not properly supported via the API yet. This is very frustrating. Also: I suggest the box devs try using Radio Buttons as a Signer to see how buggy they are. (Try selecting one, then selecting another–You will have to fight with it quite a bit–Unacceptable UX.) Thanks.

私には、パートナー、ベンダー、顧客、請負業者などの外部ユーザーと、安全かつ簡単にコラボレーションを行うためにBoxの使用を開始または拡大したいと考えている多くのお客様と会話する機会があります。Boxを「初期設定のまま」使用できることに非常に満足している人もいる一方で、このようなユーザー向けのカスタムエクスペリエンスにすでに多額の投資をしている人やそのエクスペリエンスを提供したいと考えている人、また、別のログイン機能を使用する別のアプリをユーザーに導入したくないと考える人もいます。 This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://medium.com/box-developer-blog/box-app-user%E3%81%AB%E3%81%A4%E3%81%84%E3%81%A6-d3faab7b2bfa?source=rss----a995c24848a3---4

Box recently launched a brand new Box Developer Community for developers to directly engage with each other and with the developer relations team. But sometimes, you need an answer more quickly than just posting a question on a forum — enter ChatGPT!

We are developing a system using Java on Microsoft Azure AppService. I’m developing a feature that uses the Box API in a system I’m developing. Box API authentication is done via JWT using the SDK. An error occurs at “BoxDeveloperEditionAPIConnection api = BoxDeveloperEditionAPIConnection.getAppEnterpriseConnection(boxConfig);” at runtime. The error message is “class “org.bouncycastle.asn1.pkcs.rsapublickey”'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same packag”. I am using Box SDK version 3.4.0. I would like to know the solution for this error.

When opening Box storage using Android SAF, content will not load until the Box app is opened in the background. Is this a Box app specification? Where should I see the full specifications of the Box app regarding SAF android? Any suggestion? Thank You

I often talk to to customers with use cases that revolve around reacting to certain things happening in their Box instance. Eg. when a file is uploaded in a certain folder, when a collaboration is added to certain sensitive content, when a document is signed or even when a file is previewed they want to take further action. This can be anything from notifying another system to start or continue a workflow, to looking up and applying metadata in Box from a different source. Obviously the Box first-party applications already support user notifications for these scenarios so in this article I will outline some approaches to the backend automation side of this.

Hi there, I have few folder on which i have given access to different users. Now to meet compliance I need to remove access after a certain frequency. I want to know ways through which i can remove this access (which i have given to 1000+ users) from a certain folder. Manually its very tedious. I can work in Java/python and cli…thanks for reading it. Thanks a ton.

Hi there, I would like to know is it possible to limit the OAuth authorization to specific folder much like how the scopes parameter works: https://account.box.com/api/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=ly1nj6n11vionaie65emwzk575hnnmrk&redirect_uri=http://example.com/auth/callback&folder_id=somefolderid

Hi , i am not able to read Excel or CSV file from box drive using Java SDK , Whenever I am trying to read using Java SDK its going to login page ,even I did authentication in the previous step but no luck Is it really possible without downloading a file and directly reading from box drive.? Or am I missing anything? If so please guide me. Thanks in advance, SIVARAMAN A

I am a ServiceNow Developer looking to build a Box Integration. Currently, I have ServiceNow configured to make API calls utilizing OAuth with JWT (Server Authentication). The steps I followed to accomplish that can be found here. This does work. For testing and development purposes I would like to configure Postman to emulate exactly what I have configured in the provided link. By that I mean I was to use the same client id, secret id, and point to the same custom app that was created in those steps. I feel like I want to use the developer token generated from the custom app to accomplish this, similar to what Alex responded within this post, however, I don’t see how to point to my custom app. Admittedly, when searching for documentation on how to accomplish this I probably don’t know enough about this process to find the correct steps. Any guidance on how to accomplish this would be appreciated. Thank you

I’m trying to specify a Dropdown item of a template ( in prefill_tags ) in a signing request. I tried using text_value but it didn’t seem to work. Do I have to specify the Dropdown item index somehow instead? I hope this is possible, as it seems this would be barebones functionality. Thanks.
