Box + Cursor
Manage Box (enterprise content: files, folders, collaborations, comments, tasks, metadata) from any AI agent. 10 tools, OAuth2 token.
Voraussetzungen
Die vollständige Setup-Anleitung ist in den Connector eingebaut (im Store sichtbar, wenn du den Connector auswählst). Benötigte Umgebungsvariablen für diesen Connector:
BOX_CLIENT_ID, BOX_CLIENT_SECRET, BOX_REFRESH_TOKEN
Schritt 1 — Zugangsdaten holen
This connector wraps the Box Content API v2 (api.box.com/2.0).
Setup — OAuth2:
- Register at https://app.box.com/developers/console → Create New App → 'OAuth 2.0 with JWT' or 'OAuth 2.0 with User Authentication'.
- For user OAuth: complete the auth flow at
https://account.box.com/api/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=...&redirect_uri=.... - Exchange the code at
https://api.box.com/oauth2/token. Save the refresh_token. - For JWT (server auth): generate an enterprise-level access token differently — out of scope for this OAuth-based adapter.
- Set
BOX_CLIENT_ID,BOX_CLIENT_SECRET,BOX_REFRESH_TOKEN.
…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
Schritt 2 — Adapter installieren
git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d
Schritt 3 — Connector in Cursor hinzufügen
Cursor liest MCP-Server aus ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Füge diesen Eintrag hinzu:
{
"mcpServers": {
"anythingmcp": {
"url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
}
}
}
- Hole deinen MCP API Key aus AnythingMCP → Profil → MCP API Keys → Neuer Key.
- Speichern und Cursor neu starten.
- Cursor → Einstellungen → MCP öffnen und prüfen, ob
Boxals "Connected" gelistet ist. - Chatten — alle
Box-Tools sind aufrufbar.
