How to fetch BOX file metadata information using Box API with python SDK?

The documentation has been recently updated and organised on GitHub, please take a read and you should be able to find most things here : https://github.com/box/box-python-sdk/tree/master/docs/usage

metadata = client.file(file_id='11111').metadata(scope='enterprise', template='myMetadata').get()
print('Got metadata instance {0}'.format(metadata['$id']))

Thanks for your response 

I actually want the metadata of the file which are uploaded on current day. I mean I want to read the file which came in today in a folder. 

Can I fetch the metadata of today's files only ?

This whole json content I want to save it to a file. How can I do that ?

When I execute this command.

>>> x = client.file(file_id=34***phone number removed for privacy***).get()

>>>type(x)

Output:

 It's actually a box object, I need to convert it to a json object, so that I can save it to a file. 

Can someone help me please.

have you tried using the json library?

import json

x = client.file(file_id).get()

print(json.dumps(x))

or

print(json.dumps(x.__dict__))
