I need to give one user access to all my folders without adding them as a collaborator. The main goal is to download files using the API, which requires "As User" access. Since the user needs access to the folders for this to work, I'm looking for an alternative method, possibly through groups or scopes that by some way the user can download files.
Question
Give access to a user to all folders but not as Collaborator
Hi there,
Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist!
You can post it on forum.box.com that way someone from our Developer team would be able to answer your API related query.
Thanks for posting!
Why forum.box.com shows the Notification
"Hello all,
The developer community will be moving to a new platform soon! This move is being made to enable a better experience for community members, and will be the first step in moving the broader Box community into one platform. So if you’re an admin and a developer, or a partner and a developer, your community experiences will exist all in one space.
We will be migrating all users and content as of 10am ET this morning (6 May 2024). We will also be creating an archive of all posts from the former Zendesk forum, so you have access to all the historical data and if you have an account here, it should map to your account there so you will still have access to any posts or replies you have created here. We will do our best to migrate things that take place here from now until the 15th, but it will be a manual process, so apologies in advance if we miss anything.
The new site will also move to https://community.box.com, but this URL will redirect you automatically. "
