Delete Collaboration_ID using API - is that per item (folder/file)
Answered
Good day,
each Box User has a unique Collaboration_ID.
As per my understanding, Collaboration_ID parameter is the input parameter when using API to delete collaboration
client.collaboration(collaboration_id).delete()
Will deleted Collaboration_ID be removed from all Box objects (Folders and Files)?
Asking as Box file_id or folder_id is not an input parameter to the delete Collaboration_ID API call. Or perhaps I have to run another API command to "select file_id / folder_id" before deleting Collaboration_ID.
Kind regards,
Marin

Marin,
There is an individual collaboration ID for each piece of content. For example, if I am a collaborator on Folder A and Folder B, I will have two collaboration IDs. Therefore, to answer your original question, no deleting a collaboration_ID will not remove the user from all content they are collaborated on.
Best,

Hi Kourtney,
thank you for your reply!
Could you please confirm which response field contains the collaboration_ID of the box_item (file/folder)?
It seems I'm retrieving the incorrect response field "collab.id":
----------------
collaborations = client.file(box_item_id).get_collaborations()
for collab in collaborations:
user_name = str(collab.accessible_by)
collaboration_id = collab.id-------------
Kind regards,
Marin
