I am trying to use the Box CLI to get a list of all the folders for a user and the permissions for those folders.

I was able to generate a list of the folders by running the following command

box folders:items 0 --as-user 1234567

and I was hoping to go through each of those folders now that I have the ID to check the permissions.

Am I doing this correctly or is there a better way to list this info?

By permissions, you mean everyone collaborated in each of the folders in the tree right? 

You will probably need to us this endpoint. There isn't one call api for each folder built in function for this currently.
