    Hello, 

     

    Thanks so much for using our platform and development forum! 

     

    If you'd like to use python, I'd recommend taking a look at using our python SDK. 

     

    If you choose not to use that, here are the endpoints you would need: 

    Best, 

    Kourtney

    Can you please let me know which script I need to look at under https://github.com/box/box-python-sdk ?

     ,

     

    i found an example of uploading a file under the demo code on GitHub (https://github.com/box/box-python-sdk/blob/1.5/demo/example.py) 

     

     

    def upload_file(client):
    root_folder = client.folder(folder_id='0')
    file_path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), 'file.txt')
    a_file = root_folder.upload(file_path, file_name='i-am-a-file.txt')
    try:
        print('{0} uploaded: '.format(a_file.get()['name']))
    finally:
        print('Delete i-am-a-file.txt succeeded: {0}'.format(a_file.delete()))

    to download a file as bytes (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29594289/how-to-download-files-with-box-api-python) :

     

    client.file(file_id='SOME_FILE_ID').content()

    or download to a file (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29594289/how-to-download-files-with-box-api-python)

     

    with open('FileFromBox.xls', 'wb') as open_file:
    client.file('FileId_of_box_file').download_to(open_file)
    open_file.close()

    Hello,

    In my BOX Api I added my colleague as a collaborator, My colleague is uploading files in UI to one of her new folder(folder1),

    I want to access those files from that folder1 using my python BOX Api code.

    And also vice versa, If my BOX API is uploading any files to new folder(folder2), my colleague should be able to view those files in her UI access.

    Will I be able to do that ?

    any account that is a collaborator on the folders will be able to see the files being uploaded so make sure the account you are using with the python sdk is a collaborator.

    The easiest way is to create a folder at the root level and add every account you need as collaborators on that folder and they will be able to see anything that lives somewhere underneath that created folder.

     

    I think i messed up the URL to the github link, try this https://github.com/box/box-python-sdk/blob/1.5/demo/example.py

    thanks for the example.py script, when I try to add a collaborator to my root folder I am getting the below error.

    collaboration = root_folder.add_collaborator('****', CollaborationRole.VIEWER)

    TypeError: Collaborator must be User, Group, or unicode string.

     

    I am able to create a Sub folder successfully but not able to add my colleague as a Collaborator.

     

    May I please know where am I going wrong ?

     

     

    Below is my code:

    ```

    from boxsdk import JWTAuth,Client,LoggingClient
    import pandas as pd
    import io
    from io import StringIO
    from io import BytesIO
    import logging

    # Setting logger properties
    logger = logging.getLogger("**")

    def main():
    auth = JWTAuth(
    client_id="***",
    client_secret="***",
    jwt_key_id= "***",
    enterprise_id= "**",
    rsa_private_key_passphrase="**",
    rsa_private_key_file_sys_path='**',
    )
    logger.info('JWTAuth authentication created..')
    access_token = auth.authenticate_instance()
    print(access_token)
    client = LoggingClient(auth)

    # Upload a file to Box!
    from StringIO import StringIO
    stream = StringIO()

    root_folder = client.folder(folder_id='0')
    collab_folder = root_folder.create_subfolder('collab folder')

    print('Folder {0} created'.format(collab_folder.get()['name']))
    collaboration = collab_folder.add_collaborator('***', CollaborationRole.VIEWER)

    ```

    https://github.com/box/box-python-sdk/blob/master/docs/usage/collaboration.md#add-a-collaboration

     

    user = client.user(user_id='11111')
collaboration = client.folder(folder_id='22222').collaborate(user, CollaborationRole.VIEWER)

    OR

     

    email_of_invitee = '***email address removed for privacy***'
collaboration = client.folder(folder_id='22222').collaborate_with_login(email_of_invitee, CollaborationRole.VIEWER)
