 public static String downloadBoxFile(String fileId){
    BoxAuthParser bparser;
    bparser=RefreshTokenrequest();
    Http h = new Http();
    HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
    string endPointValue = 'https://api.box.com/2.0/files/';
    endPointValue=endPointValue+fileId+'/content';
    req.setEndpoint(endPointValue);
    req.setMethod('GET');
    req.setHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer '+bparser.access_token);
    HttpResponse res = h.send(req);
    system.debug('pANY'+res.getBody());
    return res.getHeader('Location');
}

The above method should help you.The GET request header has a location and that returns the URL for download of the file .

This is the endpoint to get all files from box.com

https://api.box.com/2.0/folders/0/items?limit=5&offset=0

With file Id you can get file download information in json format.

  • In JSON you will get download link of each file associated with its other information by which you can download them. @sandeep
