Retrieves a list of collaborations for a folder. This returns all the users that have access to the folder.

Request

application/json

Path Parameters

stringin pathrequired
0

The unique identifier that represent a folder.

The ID for any folder can be determined by visiting this folder in the web application and copying the ID from the URL. For example, for the URL https://*.app.box.com/folder/123 the folder_id is 123.

The root folder of a Box account is always represented by the ID 0.

Query Parameters

string arrayin queryoptional
id,type,name

A comma-separated list of attributes to include in the response. This can be used to request fields that are not normally returned in a standard response.

Be aware that specifying this parameter will have the effect that none of the standard fields are returned in the response unless explicitly specified, instead only fields for the mini representation are returned, additional to the fields requested.

Response

application/jsonCollaborations

Returns a collection of collaboration objects. If there are no collaborations on this folder an empty collection will be returned.

application/jsonClient error

An unexpected client error.
