    hi Ritika

    You can use the BoxItem.Info.getType() to work out the type of items in the folder. Either File,Folder or Weblink

    https://github.com/box/box-java-sdk/blob/main/doc/folders.md#get-a-folders-items

    For root folder you could do something like this:

    BoxFolder folder = new BoxFolder(api, "0");
for (BoxItem.Info itemInfo : folder) {
        if (itemInfo.getType().equals("web_link") {
          BoxWeblink.Info weblinkInfo = (BoxWeblink.Info) itemInfo;
          // Do something with the weblink.
        } else  if (itemInfo.getType().equals("file") {
        BoxFile.Info fileInfo = (BoxFile.Info) itemInfo;
        // Do something with the file.
    } else if (itemInfo.getType().equals("folder") {
        BoxFolder.Info folderInfo = (BoxFolder.Info) itemInfo;
        // Do something with the folder.
    }
}
