Hello everyone, I am currently developing a minimum viable product for my company using Bubble.io. I am looking for an efficient and scalable way to store documents that my application can access. It seems to me that Box might be a simple solution for this. I am trying to use the Box plugin on Bubble. I have already found the Client ID, Client Secret, Enterprise ID, and User ID. I have also created a custom OAuth2 app on Box’s developer profile. However, I can’t seem to find what the plugin on Bubble.io refers to as the API Key and PublicKey ID. Can you help me? There are probably some preliminary steps in creating this integration that I have missed, so please feel free to direct me to introductory readings or specific tutorials for Bubble.io and Box. In particular, I am wondering if the API Key and PublicKey ID are elements that are automatically generated by Box or if I need to configure them manually. Additionally, advice on best practices for securing these keys and integrating Bo

Do developer tokens cease working after a request for application approval? Every time I try to generate a token it seems to work but the token gives me a expiration error and if I refresh the developer console the developer token does not persist. My application is not approved yet and so I’m now blocked. I can’t find anything in the docs. Thanks in advance for your help!

I want to do realtime sync once we do any changes on Box drive or Box.com account in both directions. The Sync happens automatically but I want the reference API to manage the sync in realtime before I perform other development or operations on Drive or Box.com Please suggest to achieve this and what API are avaiable in Box Drive for the sync operation.

I have an Enterprise account where they hd shared a folder with us. Using the CCG auth with the user ID of mine. I get the reperesentations but it’s not showing any collaborators. Is it any settings set by the admin of the enterprise for that folder. Or is there any issue with the collaborations view permissions But when calling the collaborators of the folder I get a group. The issue is also that when I login I can see my login as viewer but when my frind login they can see their emails as viewer but not mine.

Is there any way to securely upload files via HTTPS without creating an “app”? I just want a lightweight integration to post the results of a Jenkins job via curl. I don’t want to manage a complicated “app” lifecycle with admins and tokens and CORS domains and and and … surely there must be a way to do this with some kind of personal access token? My Box organization doesn’t allow FTP. I also can’t upload securely via email since my file might transit unencrypted or 3rd-party exchanges.

Hi!, I have a question about the location of my files in BOX, I’ve created an app to work with the API to Create read and delete files, but I couldn’t find the files what I’ve created by the API.

Hello, I have created a box connector application for one of my client who is an Enterprise user. I have used the CCG and approved the application I have created through the Box dev console. So now I have a service account and the requirement is that they will be providing some box urls and based on which we fetch the contents for them. Now as we use the CCG my understanding is that either we need to use the user id who has access to the said URL folders/files to authenticate so that my application can fetch the details Or, use the enterprise id but share the said folder/files in box with the service account email so that our application can use. I currently use this method please confirm if I’m doing it correctly or is their any other way that one account has access to all or my understandng of service account is wrong? @ajankowski , @mwoda, @rbarbosa

Hello Community, I’m relatively new to the platform and could use some guidance on the most effective approach to conduct load and performance testing using the Box API. My objective is to simulate substantial traffic from diverse users simultaneously, each with varying rights and permissions that need to be pre-configured. These users are expected to perform basic CRUD operations and execute various searches on the platform. I am seeking advice on the appropriate method to implement such a scenario on the Box platform. Specifically, I would appreciate insights into the recommended box application type and any other pertinent details that could facilitate the successful execution of these tests. Thank you in advance for your valuable assistance.

I want to change my primary address with the REST API https://api.box.com/2.0/users I would like to change the primary email address of the target user by using login as a parameter in the “login” section, but I cannot do so because of a 400 error. It is a bad_request, but can’t I change the primary address using info? {“type”: “error”, “status”:400, “code”: “bad_request”, “context_info”:{“errors”:{“reason”: “invalid_parameter”, “name”: “new_primary_ email”, “message”: “Invalid value ‘change-test@test.com’.”}]} , “help_url”: “http:/developers.box.com/docs/#errors”, “message”: “Bad Request”, “request_id”: “nwogfbhkcvt2r3mk”}%.

Hello I need contact with support team as soon as possible, we’ve talking with support but they stopped answering so I need some help about this issue, thanks

Hello. Box is reporting warnings and errors in the console when I use the “download” link exposed after I click the “…” in a file’s row when browsing a folder. The error is a 403 (Forbidden) error. I’m pretty sure this isn’t what used to happen. I have my cache disabled, and my browser was restarted today. The warnings and errors in the console make it sound like Javascript is not matched with the resources the browser is fetching from CDN. Here are the console contents. The 403 error appears when I click “download” after clicking the file’s row’s ellipsis. vendors~observability.5ad568aac3.js:1 rumAccessToken will be required in the future … runtime.013a6bc02d.js:1 Initialization of sharing external failed: Error: No remote path is available for the remote name box_docgen_client! … As a workaround, I am able to download if I click on the row for the file, then Box shows me the page for the file, and I can successfully download the file via the “download” button at the top right.
