Box

Manage Box (enterprise content: files, folders, collaborations, comments, tasks, metadata) from any AI agent. 10 tools, OAuth2 token.

Einrichtung

This connector wraps the Box Content API v2 (api.box.com/2.0).

Setup — OAuth2:

  1. Register at https://app.box.com/developers/consoleCreate New App → 'OAuth 2.0 with JWT' or 'OAuth 2.0 with User Authentication'.
  2. For user OAuth: complete the auth flow at https://account.box.com/api/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=...&redirect_uri=....
  3. Exchange the code at https://api.box.com/oauth2/token. Save the refresh_token.
  4. For JWT (server auth): generate an enterprise-level access token differently — out of scope for this OAuth-based adapter.
  5. Set BOX_CLIENT_ID, BOX_CLIENT_SECRET, BOX_REFRESH_TOKEN.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Voraussetzungen: BOX_CLIENT_ID, BOX_CLIENT_SECRET, BOX_REFRESH_TOKEN
