I used 

https://api.box.com/2.0/search?query=sometext&updated_at_range=2018-05-10T13:35:01-07:00,2018-06-28T17:35:01-07:00

 

which gives me files (containing the sometext as specified in query) updated in the specified range.

 

But I want to get all files updated in a specified range (in an incremental style to avoid loading of old files) without any query string = sometext.

 

I am not getting how to use metadata filter.

Hello, 

 

Unfortunately, it is not possible to search via the API without specifying a query string at this time. As you can see in our documentation, the query is a required field. However, you can accomplish this using search in the webapp! 

 

Best,

Thanks for your reply.

Can we expect  an API for the same in near future.

 

Or can you suggest an alternative for the same.
