What's up Box developers? I'm Alex

Hello Developers! 🖥️ It is my mission to help all of you on your journey with Box Platform. 📚 A little about me - I live in Austin, TX. 🤠 I like to do woodworking and baking, both hobbies from the pandemic. I also garden some and am crossing my finger my pumpkins sprout soon. 🏝 From my most recent trip to Joshua Tree 🌵 🌵

Hey Box Devs! I'm Tony

Hey everyone - happy to be a part of the Box Dev community! I’m Tony Melrose - I’ve been at Box for the last 8 years working with our developers, and before that I was building on and administering Box at a customer! I’m excited to connect with y’all. These days I prefer to build in python (generally using Flask), but have built all sorts of projects in all sorts of languages over the last 15 or so years. Looking forward to meeting folks!

Hey everyone! I'm Hass, Platform Solutions Engineer

I’ve been at Box for just over 4 years now focused and specializing on Box’s APIs, key integrations, and some focus areas like Box Sign. I typically jump between Python and NodeJS on development but always open to working on whatever’s new or brushing up on other languages. Excited to be working with you all on our brand new forum experience!

Hiiiiii! I'm Kyle Adams, Partner Architect @ Box

I work with the Box Partners team and help our Systems Integrator partners build solutions on Box and other technologies. You might also recognize me from the Box for Salesforce Community roundtable events that I present at on a monthly basis! I’ve been a Boxer for almost 7yrs and have specialized in Content Management (FileNet, OnBase, Alfresco) as a Dev/Admin/Architect for the past 15+ years. Back in the old days we had to walk 2 miles each way to check-in and check-out a document 👴. I only recently started developing on the force.com platform for the past 5-ish years. Salesforce is weird and complex and keeps me interested. I’m an awful frontend developer, but I can get by. My primary programming languages are Java and Node, but I like to dabble in C#, Python, and Go. I suppose you can throw Apex in the mix as well. 🤷 If you ever have any questions about content management best practices, process management, or Salesforce integration best practices, feel free to re

Hi I'm Patrick and I lead the Developer Platform engineering team!

Hi all! I joined Box in 2017 as a software engineer and over time I transitioned into management. I’ve been in the Platform space since 2019, when I joined the SDK team! In 2022 I became the manager of the Developer Platform team, a mix of frontend, backend and full stack engineers! We work on a lot of different parts of Box: The Box Public API, Developer Console, Authentication Methods, Reporting / Metrics for Box Apps / APIs, Sandboxes, Webhooks, Box UI Elements, Box Skills and more. I’m really excited about our roadmap this year and look forward to hearing the feedback from the community!

Hello...I am Dirk from Washington and Lee

I work for a small leading liberal arts college in Virginia. We have been a Box customer for almost a decade now…and Box is our primary storage solution. So far most of our development has been for Box administration, using PowerShell and the Box CLI. We are starting to reach out across the University to see where we can assist in adding Box components to unique projects. When I am not working, you will find me paddling, mountain biking, or touring the country on my road bike.

Folders and Documents

Hi, to access folders and files created from a BOX Application, in the past I used the Content option in the browser, now, that option is not showing the folder structure. My question is: Where can I have access to the folder structure like before? Thanks in advance, best regards, Gerardo

Hi, I'm Mark with UIUC

Good day! I’m Mark with the University of Illinois where I run the Canvas service for our campus. Before that I ran our Blackboard Learn service and was a Blackboard MVP. The U of I has been using Box storage for quite a few years as our enterprise storage solution. I’ve heard that we have over 6PB in Box, so I’m glad to see all the technicians and engineers here that keep the boilers stoked for us! I enjoy developing solutions to link together disparate systems, so if anyone needs input from a member of higher education for any reason, please reach out!
