Frequently Asked Questions

Does file metadata include the document text?

File details provide metadata. Download the file separately when you need the file itself; this connection does not parse its document text.

How do I upload a file?

Provide a publicly reachable file URL, a filename, and the parent folder ID. The upload operation supports files up to 50 MB.

What happens when I delete a file?

The delete operation moves it to Box trash. Folder deletion has its own operation.
