Allow Box.com Integration
Discussed in https://github.com/dakboard/Cloud-Platform/discussions/1545
Originally posted by mikesmobile73 July 19, 2022 Hello. I would like to request a feature to allow the integration with Box.com. Similar to Dropbox or Google Drive, adding the ability to connect with Box.com might allow for organizations using Box to connect to their data.
Note: This is quite irregular, but Box requires read and write permission scopes in order to simply download a file from Box through their API and display it. This is the only reason DAKboard will be requesting "write" scope to Box during the Authorization Grant process. That said, however, we will also be using their "Downscoping" approach to reduce the requests permissions when actually requesting the temporary download URL.
