Is there a way to create a 'file request' from the API or SDK or Relay? 

 

I can't find any reference to it outside of in the GUI.   We'd like to be able to create a file request when new folders get created for a case let's say.   Dynamically being able to create the 'file request' would be so useful.

 

perhaps it' a type of collaboration?

Hey  

 

The file request feature initially launched as UI/web app only, but we expect to have a publicly facing API in the near term. Once it is available, documentation will be listed on https://developer.box.com/ and a changelog entry will be here https://developer.box.com/changelog/

Do you have any idea about the time frame? weeks, months, or unknown?   I know our clients really want this feature,

Was there ever a resolution to this issue? Cause it has been 2 years and I am not seeing a way to do this other than copying a file request url from one that already exists but I would like to create a new one upon create a new folder as well.
