Box Integration

Manage Box files, folders, sharing, comments, search, and collaborations

The Box integration provides access to manage Box files, folders, sharing, comments, search, and collaborations through the Integrate MCP server.

Installation

The Box integration is included with the SDK:

import { boxIntegration } from "integrate-sdk/server";

Setup

1. Create a Box OAuth App

Create an OAuth application for Box
Configure your redirect URI
Note your Client ID and Client Secret

2. Configure the Integration on Your Server

Add the Box integration to your server configuration. The integration automatically reads BOX_CLIENT_ID and BOX_CLIENT_SECRET from your environment variables:

import { createMCPServer, boxIntegration } from "integrate-sdk/server";
 
export const { client: serverClient } = createMCPServer({
  apiKey: process.env.INTEGRATE_API_KEY,
  integrations: [
    boxIntegration({
    }),
  ],
});

You can override the environment variables by passing explicit values:

boxIntegration({
  clientId: process.env.CUSTOM_BOX_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.CUSTOM_BOX_SECRET,
});

3. Client-Side Usage

The default client automatically includes all integrations. You can use it directly:

import { client } from "integrate-sdk";
 
await client.authorize("box");
const result = await client.box.getCurrentUser({});
 
console.log(result);

If you're using a custom client, add the integration to the integrations array:

import { createMCPClient, boxIntegration } from "integrate-sdk";
 
const customClient = createMCPClient({
  integrations: [boxIntegration()],
});
