I've been able to set up our Box instance within Salesforce, but how can we map specific folders in Box to specific Accounts in Salesforce?

i.e. ABC Company's file shows up by default in ABC Company's Salesforce Account

Hi Ethan! 

Are you referring to mapping previously made/already existing folders in Box to accounts in Salesforce? 

Thanks,

Yes, exactly that. Is there a way to match them up?

You would need to use our Developer Toolkit to add the mapping information to the FRUP table. This would require some custom coding. We don't have examples to provide unfortunately. One of the methods you will need to use is createFolderAssociation. 

I'm not sure how large your project is, but I always recommend customers getting a bid from our Box Consulting group on a Salesforce enablement engagement. 

Hope this helps!
