OAUTH 2.0
FILES & DOCUMENTS
Every contract, file, and folder your team shares in Box. Box MCP gives your agent authenticated access to file storage scoped to the user who authorized it.

Does the agent access Box as the user or as a shared key?
As the user. Each workspace member authorizes once and Scalekit resolves their credential at request time. Audit logs attribute every action to that user, not a shared service account.
Where is the Box oauth 2.0 stored?
In Scalekit's managed AES-256 token vault, namespaced per tenant. Refresh is automatic. Revocation is a single dashboard action. Tokens never appear in prompts, logs, or LLM context.
Can I limit what the agent is allowed to do in Box?
Yes. Pass a tool name filter to listScopedTools so the document agent only sees the subset you authorize. Pre-API-call scope checks block out-of-policy actions before the request reaches Box.
What happens when a user revokes Box access?
The connection is invalidated on the next tool call. Subsequent requests for that user fail closed with a clear error. Other users in the tenant remain unaffected. The event is logged for audit.
Can the agent download files outside the user's folders?
No. File search, downloads, and shared links all run with the authorizing user's Box permissions. Collaboration scope, folder ACLs, and Box-level security policies are honored.
