Box Additional Configuration - Mule 4

To use the Box connector in a Mule app, configure a global Box configuration element to use by as many Box connectors as needed for your application.

Configure the Box Connector Global Element

  1. Click the Global Elements tab at the base of the canvas.

  2. In the Global Configuration Elements screen, click Create.

  3. In the Choose Global Type wizard, expand Connector Configuration and select Mule-box-connector Config and click OK.
    In the configuration screen for OAUTH 2.0 with Authorization Code, grant type displays. This is the only configuration that Box connector supports.

  4. Configure the properties as described here.

    Parameter Description

    clientId

    Specifies the client identifier as assigned by the authorization server when the client application was registered.

    clientSecret

    Specifies the client application’s client secret.

    host

    The host where Box exposes its API.

    port

    The port where Box services listen for incoming requests. Default: 443

    basePath

    The base path for the Box services' base URI.

    protocol

    The protocol which Box services follow. Default: HTTPS

    localCallbackPath

    The local callback path. Default: /callback

    localCallbackConfig

    The HTTP Listener configuration that is used to configure the local authorization URL.

    externalCallbackUrl

    The redirect URL that is configured in the client application.

    localAuthorizationUrl

    Local authorization URL that is used to initiate an OAuth2 dance.

    authorizationUrl

    The authorization URL to request for an authorization code.

    accessTokenUrl

    Specifies the URL for requesting an access token.

    In the OAUTH 2.0 configuration screen, the placeholder values refer to a configuration file mule-artifact.properties placed in the src/main/resources folder of your project.

    You can either enter your credentials into the global configuration properties, or reference a configuration file that contains these values.

    Use a configuration file for simpler maintenance and better reusability of your project. Keeping these values in a separate file is useful if you need to deploy to different environments where your access credentials are different, such as production, development, and QA.

  5. Click OK.
