Hi All,

 

I want to set expire date of the colloborator while adding colloboration on specific folder for a user using API call. So that on expiry date, the folder access should be disabled for the user.

But i am not able to find any option through which i can pass expiry_at value.

 

I have checked the below API description :

https://box-content.readme.io/reference#add-a-collaboration

There is no option available to set the expiry date using above API call. But as per the response, the expires_at is retrieved with null value.

 

Kindly suggest me possbile workaround through API.

    Hi!

     

    At this time, we don't allow modification of the expires_at parameter of collaborations through the API.

     

     

    Depending on your use-case, you may be able to get away with leveraging shared links on the folder rather than collaborations and you can set the "unshared_at" date to automatically unshare the link on a certain date. You can add a shared link with expiration to a folder using a call similar to the below:

     

    PUT /folders/folder_ID
    -H Authorization Bearer [TOKEN]
    -d {"shared_link": {"unshared_at": "DATE"}}

     

    ^ returns the shared link along with additional information about it [https://box-content.readme.io/reference#create-a-shared-link-for-a-folder]

     

     

    Alternatively, you could put logic into your application to maintain the collaborations by adding and removing them with calls on specific dates - but at this time, you cannot set the expires_at parameter using the API.

     

     

    Hopefully that helps!

    -Tony

    I am too looking at changing the expires_at using the API. This answer seems to be from over an year ago, and wonder if something changed. 

     

    Looking at the API documentation, there is an expires_at property when updating a collaboration - https://docs.box.com/reference#edit-a-collaboration

     

    I tried to use it, but the server consistently returns 500: Internal Server Error.  Also, if I use it on its own, I get a validation error that a "role" is required.

     Sorry for the confusion. There was an error in our documentation. The expires_at property can not be set from the API. As you mentioned, the role parameter is required. I updated the documentation to reflect the correct information for both of these things.
