List Pending Collaborations - List all pending collaborations for a user
Get Collaboration - Retrieve details of a specific collaboration by its ID, including the collaborator (user or group), their role, the item (file or folder) they have access to, and the collaboration status. Use list_folder_collaborations or list_file_collaborations to find collaboration IDs.
Create Collaboration - Add a collaborator (user or group) to a file or folder with a specific role (editor, viewer, previewer, uploader, previewer uploader, viewer uploader, co-owner). You can identify users by email (accessible_by.login) or user ID (accessible_by.id) — no need to look up the user ID first if you have their email. Cannot add the folder/file owner as a collaborator (returns 400). The is_access_only option is only supported for folder collaborations, not files. The expires_at option requires the enterprise admin to enable the "Automatically remove invited collaborators" setting.
Update Collaboration - Update a collaboration's role, expiry date, or path visibility. Requires the authenticated user to be the folder owner, co-owner, or enterprise admin. The expires_at field only works if the enterprise "Automatically remove invited collaborators" setting is enabled. Returns 403 if the user lacks permission to modify the collaboration.
Remove Collaboration - Remove a collaboration, revoking the user's or group's access to the shared file or folder. Requires the collaboration_id, which can be obtained from list_folder_collaborations or list_file_collaborations.
List Group Collaborations - List all file and folder collaborations for a specific group, showing what content the group has access to and with what role. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin permissions — having manage_groups scope alone is not sufficient, the authenticated user must also have admin-level privileges in the Box Admin Console.
List Folder Collaborations - List all collaborations on a folder, showing which users and groups have access and their roles (editor, viewer, co-owner, etc.). Returns both pending and active collaborations. Use the collaboration_id from the response for update_collaboration or delete_collaboration operations.
List File Collaborations - List all collaborations on a file, showing which users and groups have access and their roles. Returns both pending and active collaborations. Use the collaboration_id from the response for update_collaboration or delete_collaboration operations.
Create Comment - Add a comment to a file
Get Comment - Retrieve information about a comment
Update Comment - Update a comment's message
Delete Comment - Remove a comment
Get User And Enterprise Events - List user and enterprise events
Get File Information - Retrieve information about a file
Get File Thumbnail - Retrieve a thumbnail of a file
Update File - Update a file's name, description, parent folder (to move it), shared link, tags, or lock status. To lock a file, provide a lock object with type='lock'. To unlock a file, omit the lock field entirely (do NOT set lock to null, which may cause errors).
Delete File - Delete a file and move it to trash
Copy File - Copy a file to another folder
Download File - Download file content
Get File Version - Retrieve a specific version of a file
List File Versions - List all versions of a file
Promote File Version - Promote a previous file version to be the current version
Restore File Version - Restore a previously deleted file version from the file's version history. This does NOT restore files from the trash — use restore_file for that. Requires the file_id and the file_version_id of the deleted version (obtainable from list_file_versions). Only works on premium Box accounts that support version tracking.
Delete File Version - Delete a specific file version
List File Comments - List all comments on a specific file by its file_id. Use list_folder_items first to find the file_id if you only have the filename. Returns comment text, author, creation date, and reply information.
List File Tasks - List tasks on a file
Get Trashed File - Retrieve information about a file in trash
Restore File From Trash - Restore a file from trash

Restore Folder From Trash - Restore a folder from trash
Permanently Delete Folder - Permanently delete a trashed folder
List Trashed Items - List all items in trash
List Groups - List all enterprise groups, optionally filtered by name prefix. Returns group IDs, names, and basic details. Use filter_term to search for groups whose name starts with a specific string. This is a read-only listing operation that requires manage_groups scope.
Get Group - Retrieve detailed information about a specific group by its ID, including name, description, invitability_level, and member_viewability_level. Requires admin-level permissions or group membership — note this requires stronger permissions than list_groups, which may succeed even when get_group returns 403.
Create Group - Create a new enterprise group with optional invitation and member visibility settings. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin role — the manage_groups OAuth scope alone is not sufficient, the authenticated user must have admin-level privileges in the Box Admin Console.
Update Group - Update a group's name, description, invitation settings, or member visibility. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin permissions — the authenticated user must have admin-level privileges, not just manage_groups scope.
Delete Group - Permanently delete an enterprise group. This action cannot be undone. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin permissions.
List Group Memberships - List all members of a specific group, including their user IDs, roles (member or admin), and membership IDs. The membership ID is needed for update_group_membership and remove_user_from_group operations.
Add User To Group - Add a user to an enterprise group as a member or admin. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin permissions. Provide the user ID and group ID as nested objects. Returns 403 if the authenticated account lacks admin-level privileges for group membership management.

List File Metadata Instances - List all metadata instances on a file
Get File Metadata Instance - Retrieve a specific metadata instance on a file
Create File Metadata Instance - Apply a metadata template instance to a file. Requires the file_id, scope (e.g. 'enterprise_1452824910' or 'global'), template_key, and a metadata object with field values. Even if all template fields are optional, the metadata object must contain at least one key-value pair — an empty object {} is rejected with 400 Bad Request. Returns 409 Conflict if this template is already applied to the file (use update_file_metadata to modify existing metadata).
Update File Metadata Instance - Update a metadata instance on a file
Delete File Metadata Instance - Remove a metadata instance from a file
Get Folder Metadata Instance - Retrieve a specific metadata instance on a folder
List Folder Metadata Instances - List all metadata instances on a folder
Create Folder Metadata Instance - Apply a metadata template instance to a folder. Requires the folder_id, scope, template_key, and a metadata object with at least one key-value pair. Returns 409 Conflict if this template is already applied to the folder — use update_folder_metadata to modify existing metadata, or delete_folder_metadata first to remove and re-apply.
Update Folder Metadata Instance - Update a metadata instance on a folder
Delete Folder Metadata Instance - Remove a metadata instance from a folder
List Metadata Templates - List all metadata templates
Get Metadata Template - Retrieve a metadata template
Query By Metadata - Search for files and folders that have specific metadata values applied. This is a read-only search/query tool — it does NOT create, update, or delete metadata. Use create_file_metadata, update_file_metadata, or delete_file_metadata for write operations. Uses SQL-like syntax to filter by metadata field values.
Create Task - Create a review or completion task on a file. The task is created unassigned — use assign_task afterwards to assign it to users. Accepts an optional due date in ISO 8601 format (e.g. "2025-12-31T23:59:00+00:00"). Use +00:00 for UTC timezone offset, not -00:00.
Get Task - Retrieve information about a task
Update Task - Update a task's message, due date, action type, or completion rule. Note that updating completion_rule may fail with 400 Bad Request if the task has no assignees — assign at least one user before changing the completion rule.
Delete Task - Remove a task
List Task Assignments - List assignments for a task
Assign Task - Assign a task to a user by user ID or email address. The user receives a notification. You can use either assign_to.id (user ID) or assign_to.login (email address) — you do not need to look up the user ID first if you already have their email.
Get Task Assignment - Retrieve information about a task assignment
Update Task Assignment - Update a task assignment's resolution state or message. Only the task creator, the assignee themselves, or enterprise admins can update an assignment. Returns 403 if the authenticated user lacks permission OR if the assignment is already in an approved/completed state.
Delete Task Assignment - Remove a task assignment
Upload File - Upload a new file
Upload File Version - Upload a new version of an existing file by providing the file_id, base64-encoded file content (file_content), and a filename (file_name). All three parameters are required. For files up to 50MB only — use chunked upload for larger files.
Create Upload Session - Create a chunked upload session for large files
Get Current User - Retrieve the profile of the currently authenticated user, including their user ID, name, email, avatar URL, and enterprise info. Does not require admin permissions — any authenticated user can call this. Use this to get the current user's ID when you need it for other operations.
List Enterprise Users - List all enterprise users with their IDs, names, and email addresses. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin permissions with manage_managed_users scope. Use filter_term to search by name or email prefix. Use user_type to filter by managed, external, or all users. If you already have a user's email address (e.g. for task assignment), you can pass it directly to assign_task via assign_to.login instead of looking up their user ID here.
Get User - Retrieve information about a user
Create User - Create a new managed user account in the enterprise. Requires enterprise admin or co-admin role with manage_managed_users scope. The login email must use a real domain (not @example.com). Returns 403 Forbidden if the authenticated account lacks admin privileges.
Update User - Update a user's information
Delete User - Delete a user from the enterprise
Get User Avatar - Retrieve a user's avatar image. Returns 404 if no custom avatar has been uploaded, even when the user profile contains an avatar_url field (which points to a default placeholder until a real image is uploaded). Use this to check whether a user has a custom profile picture.
Delete User Avatar - Delete a user's avatar image

Box integration FAQ
Do I need to create my own auth app to connect Box to StackOne?
Yes, you need an auth app inside the Box Developer Console. Box calls this a "Custom App" (OAuth 2.0 type). Once created with the StackOne redirect URI and read+write file scopes, paste the Client ID and Secret into the StackOne dashboard auth config for the Box connector. See the Box auth docs.
