Now that all endpoints in the Box AI Platform API are available in beta, we created several videos showing you how easy it is to use them. All the examples use cURL to be framework agnostic, but you are welcome to try any of our SDKs.

Box AI Platform API — in one minute

Discover all the high level features of the Box AI Platform API.

Box AI Platform API document q&a demo

Box AI allows you to summarize content or ask questions about any content you have in Box. You can also ask questions about up to 25 documents at one time. Find out more in the developer docs.

Box AI Platform API text generation demo

Box AI allows you to generate text based on a prompt. For example, if you wanted to write a social media post for X, you could ask Box AI to do it for you. Find out more in the developer docs.

Box AI Platform API freeform metadata extraction demo

If you want to extract metadata using any text string (including Salesforce XML schemas), this is the endpoint to use. Find out more about this in a previously posted blog.

Box AI Platform API structured metadata extraction demo

If you want to extract metadata using an already existing Box metadata template, this is the endpoint to use. Find out more about this in a previously posted blog.

Box Preview UI element demo

You can now bring Box AI to your own content portals using the Preview UI element. Find out more about using this component in the Preview developer docs.

Box AI Developer Zone demo

Checkout the Developer Zone on the Box developer site to play around with any of the Box AI Platform API pieces.

In order to use the Box AI Platform API endpoints, you must be an Enterprise Plus customer. You must have an application created in the developer console with the appropriate Box AI scope, and your Box instance must have Box AI enabled. Currently, metadata extraction endpoints are in private beta. To use these, you will need to contact your account team.
