Hi Team,

As a requirement we need to get the collaborated email id/user id's. Could you please share the sample java code snippet if there is any api to get the colloborated email ids.

Thanks & Regards,

Kalyan

Hi ,

Thanks for your question! Box's Java SDK includes comments and snippets on how to return information about collaborations on a file or folder:

https://github.com/box/box-java-sdk/blob/master/doc/collaborations.md

Hope that helps!

Thanks,

Jason

what exactly are you looking for?

If you retrieve a list of collaborations for a file or folder, you have access to all users/groups listed as collaborators which includes the user's name and login email address.

BoxFolder boxFolder = new BoxFolder(boxAPIConnection, "12345");
    List collaborators = (List) boxFolder.getCollaborations();
    for (BoxCollaboration.Info collaborator : collaborators) {
      if (collaborator.getAccessibleBy() instanceof BoxUser.Info) {
        BoxUser.Info boxUserInfo = (BoxUser.Info) collaborator.getAccessibleBy();
        System.out.println("User name : " + boxUserInfo.getName());
        System.out.println("Email Address : " + boxUserInfo.getLogin());
      } 
      else if (collaborator.getAccessibleBy() instanceof BoxGroup.Info) {
        BoxGroup.Info groupInfo = (BoxGroup.Info) collaborator.getAccessibleBy();
        List boxGroupMembershipInfos = (List) groupInfo.getResource().getMemberships();
        for (BoxGroupMembership.Info membershipInfo : boxGroupMembershipInfos) {
          System.out.println("User name : " + membershipInfo.getUser().getName());
          System.out.println("Email Address : " + membershipInfo.getUser().getLogin());
        }
      }
    }
