Hi,

 

We want create a window deskptop application, which authorize BOX users, retrive their files and update meta data information.

 

We found using BOX web integration it seems feasible. But Could we create BOX Desktop application which do so? If yes then HOW?

  Well, the Box API is simply a RESTful API, and most desktop application development frameworks have libraries that allow them to make HTTPS requests--that's quite a common thing these days.  So, all you'd need to do is use the Box API reference (see https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference) and make the appropriate calls from your new desktop app.

   

  Depending on which language you're using to develop your desktop app, there are also a number of SDKs available to help accellerate the development process.  See https://developer.box.com/v2.0/page/sdks for details.

   

  Hope that helps!
