I am admin/co-admin in my organization and I want to retrieve all the files/folder present in my organization atleast the one which are shared across organization or teams. I created a custom app to retrieve token but that returns only my folders/files or one which are shared with me only. I am using Box Business starter plan and can go to Business plan. 

Is there any api to do so? or any other way using api calls or apps?

    Hello, 

    Using the Box API, you only see results based on what the user who requested the access token can see in the main web app. If you want to see other user's content, you would want to impersonate that user with an as-user API call. 

    Thanks,

    Thanks Alex. I got the required things. But is there any API using which I can get all collaborations ID in the organization? Or I have to do this also with an AS-USER API call
