Is there some way to listen events like folder and file creation in the root folder using webhooks v2, or if is another way to receive a notification for these actions?

   Unfortunately, webhooks v2 cannot be applied at the root level

   an alternative is to use the events api : https://developer.box.com/reference#get-events-in-an-enterprise

   

  you can get all enterprise events and for each event, check the event type and what folder the event happened on. You would need to store the 'stream_position' value somewhere so you don't retrieve the same events over and over.

  Thanks for the responses,

  I knew that webhooks v2 don't support notification from the root, but webhook v1 does it, have you in the roadmap the idea to support this for webhooks v2?. At least other cloud storage providers do this in one way or another.
