    Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to upload a file with a URL.

     

    When calling the Upload File endpoint, you need to specify the file's location on your local machine or server.

    would it be possible in the near future?

     

    and also, this is not possible than, is it possible to send a string of base64 to be uploaded as file on the box?

    Hi ,

     

    Is this feature available now? I have files on the cloud storage with a public URL. I have to upload the files to Box to generate the preview link or render viewer using box-content-preview JS SDK.
