Provide user to be able to choose files from his Box using my website

Question

Is there in the Box API some kind of dropbox alike chooser, to provide functionality to choose user's content from his Box, and response via API to our backend/frontend the file data?

Answer 1

Yes, you can do this quite easily with the Box File-picker:

<div id="box-select" data-link-type="YOUR_LINK_TYPE" data-multiselect="YOUR_MULTISELECT" data-client-id="YOUR_CLIENT_ID"></div>
