Box

Look up the Box connector: its actions and events in alphabetical order, and the sign-in methods of a Box connection.

The Box connector lets a workflow manage files and folders, share them, and send sign requests in Box. In the Add node panel, it's in the Connector category, under Box. How connector nodes work describes how a connector node is set up.

Actions​

Each action is a node that does one thing in Box.
