I wrote a script to copy directories to Box, and was about to write another function to copy directories from Box when Box Drive was released.

I tried it and it was great and it didn't seem like I needed by API scripts anymore.  But our IT shutdown Box Drive access since its only Beta

and won't deploy until they can test the production version.  So I want to know if the release date is going to be soon, or should I go back to writing my downloading script?

We have the same issue with our administrator here. Would love to know a target release date.

  As you mentioned, Box Drive is still in beta. We haven't shared a target product release date yet. The current plan is to have a production release later this year.

ok.. I hope its soon.  Box Drive really solves a lot of problems for us.  I had to move back to Box Sync and it was so depressing.

All,

 

Any update on a possible production release date? We're anxiously waiting here for this functionality.

 

Thanks

It's now well in 2018. End-of-year 2017 has come and gone. Doesn't bode well for the service I guess.

Hey ,

 

Thanks for your post. Seems like you found an old thread, but for more updates on Box Drive you should follow our produhttps://community.box.com/t5/Box-Product-News/bg-p/ProductNewsBlog

 

We're currently on version 1.7 but the Beta is almost coming to a close. You should be on the lookout for an announcement within the next month (no date yet, but soon!). Appreciate your interest!

I was told by our IT to expect it sometime in the Sept-Dec time frame 2018.  Unfortunately, I need it now and have to resort to writing my own API scripts.
