Box setup

Complete the setup in the Glean Admin console.

Requirements

Permissions

• The user setting up the connector must be a Box Admin.
• Box co-admin accounts are not supported. Use a Box Admin account so Glean can crawl all expected content.
• Glean uses a managed Central OAuth app for Box setup.

Optional: Suppress notification emails

Glean uses the Box download files endpoint during crawling. If your Box instance sends email notifications for suspicious download activity, we recommend asking Box to suppress notifications for the client ID used by the integration.

Contact Glean Support to get the client ID.

If you do not suppress these notifications, Box may send download notifications across your organization.

Set up the connector

1. Sign in to the Glean Admin console.
2. Under the Setup tab, enter a Name, and optional Icon for the connector.
3. Select Authorize and follow the prompts to grant Glean access to your Box instance.
