A beta version of the new Box developer documentation site is launching soon! Updated Developer Guides, modern API Reference, and AI-powered search are on the way to help you build with Box faster. Stay tuned for more updates.
By default, the search API returns the standard format of a
File, Folder, or Web Link. Each of
these resources supports additional fields that can be requested through the
fields query parameter.
When the fields parameter is used to query additional information about the
items, only those fields and a few base fields (id, type, name, etc)
are returned. Any fields that were originally in the response would now have to
be requested explicitly.
