Hi!

Is there any way of setting the base folder in the File Picker?

 

Thanks!

    It is currently not possible to customize the base folder with the Box File Picker. The user will see their root folder.

    Will it be possible in the future? How can I raise a feature request?

    Thank you!

     This feature would be amazing.  I need exactly that.  Any workaround or easier way to replicate that without reinventing it?

     

    -Button creates popup window into a known box folder ID

    -User selects a file (single select is OK, navigation not necessary)

    -Popup closes and returns the URL for that file (default sharing setting is OK)

     

    Thanks
