Looking for metadata/deceleration of classes which represent Box rest API
Hello Experts,
I am using Box REST API, and parsing response JSON.
For parsing we have defined Java classes which represent json. But we understand some of the information added or removed by box is missing information due to my local java classes does not have those fileds.
So I am looking for box represented rest metadata to build these classes like xsd, wsdl or java classes.
And how do we came to know some thing is changed so that I need to refresh my source classes.
Thank you,
Anand

Hi,
Look at this, may help you to add custom metadata...
public async void MetaData(string fileId)
{
try
{
OAuthSession _auth = new OAuthSession(oAuthToken.AccessToken, oAuthToken.RefreshToken, 3600, "bearer");
BoxTool.Properties.Settings.Default.accessToken = _auth.AccessToken;
BoxTool.Properties.Settings.Default.refreshToken = _auth.RefreshToken;
IBoxConfig _config = new BoxConfig(ClientId, ClientSecret, RedirectUri);
BoxClient _client = new BoxClient(_config, _auth);
IRequestHandler _handler = new HttpRequestHandler();
IBoxConverter _parser = new BoxJsonConverter();
_client.AddResourcePlugin();
Dictionary mdReq = new Dictionary()
{
{ "CustOwner","YourName"},
{ "CreatedBy", "SomeName"},
{ "ModifiedBy", "SomeName"}
};
var md = await _client.ResourcePlugins.Get().CreateMetadata(fileId, mdReq);}
catch (Exception e)
{
appendmsg("Error in Metadata : " + e.Message, false);
}

Hello,
Thank you for the update. I think your code returns that particular file/folder meta data. My question is most leated to all types of events.
metadata I mean all the fileds that box will respond to the rest request.
example
If I call box api with end polint
https://api.box.com/2.0/events
Then the response will be
{ "source": { "item_type": "file", "item_id": "removed for privacy49", "item_name": "testng.xml", "parent": { "type": "folder", "name": "All Files", "id": "0" } }, "created_by": { "type": "user", "id": "removed for privacy", "name": "user1", "login": "***@example.com" }, "created_at": "20**removed**T14:30:**removed**:00", "event_id": "01194f**removed**f5d-47c0-b628-ca2685858a31", "event_type": "SHARE", "ip_address": "", "type": "event", "session_id": null, "additional_details": { "shared_link_id": "ylzyeqkocg3njnlp4l3k95n5uhdt7myj", "version_id": "removed for privacy73", "service_id": "191753", "service_name": "app1" } }
In the above response meta data I mean the List of fields and sub files represent in the form of xsd or java class etc...

Hello,
Thank you for the details. the link you are suggesting is telling how the response for each object modal.
But to create this JSON box may using some class strecture which holds these information. If box not using any specific class is it using collections like map and list to create responce?
Did you get my question...
