Get Comments
Fetches all comments on a Box file, paginating through every page and returning the full list. Use Add Comment to create a new comment on the file.
Get File Metadata
Retrieves metadata for a file (name, size, timestamps, path, and more). Optionally request specific fields. Use List File Versions for version history, or Download File for content.
Get File Text
Extracts the text content of a Box file using its extracted_text representation. Works for office documents, presentations, spreadsheets, PDFs, and plain-text or code files. Box does not generate this representation…

List File Versions
Lists prior versions of a file (does not include the current version). Box only tracks file versions for users with premium accounts, so this returns an empty list on free accounts. Use Get File Metadata for current…
List Folder Items
Lists files, folders, and web links in a Box folder. Use 0 for the root folder. Returns one page of results (default 100, max 1000), with next_marker for paging, or total_count and offset when Offset is set or the root…
List Folders
Lists the subfolders directly inside a Box folder. Use 0 for the root folder. Returns one page of results (default 100, max 1000). Use List Folder Items instead to also include files and web links.
Search Content
Searches for files, folders, and web links across the user's Box content by keyword and/or metadata filters — at least one of Query or Metadata Filters is required. Matches item names, descriptions, and file text…
New EventTrigger
Emit new event when any of the selected event types occurs on the target file or folder, via a Box webhook.
New File EventTrigger
Emit new event when a file is uploaded to, or moved into, the target folder ( FILE.UPLOADED ), via a Box webhook. Box fires this trigger for both cases, so moving an existing file into the folder also emits an event.

Deletes a folder by moving it to trash (or permanently when enterprise settings require). Set Recursive to true to delete non-empty folders and all contents; without it, deleting a non-empty folder fails. Deleting a…
