Creating an OAuth App on Your Box Server

In order to integrate with your Box server, you must create a OAuth app on your Box server using the same user credentials you will be using when creating a connection for TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Box. From the perspective of Box, this Box app acts as the representative of a client app interacting with the Box platform. In TIBCO Cloud™ Integration, the client app is used by the TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Box to connect to Box. Refer to the Box developer documentation for instructions on how to create a Box OAuth app.

Before you begin When creating the Box OAuth app, be aware of the following:
  • You can either create a "Custom App", "Enterprise Integration", or "Partner Integration" app depending on your requirement.
  • For Authentication Method, select "Standard Oauth 2.0 (User Authentication)".
  • On the Configuration page, make sure the "OAuth 2.0 Redirect URI" is specified in this form: https://<TIBCO Cloud Integration Public URL>/wistudio/connectiondetails where <TIBCO Cloud Integration Public URL> is the TIBCO Cloud™ Integration URL that depends on the region your TIBCO Cloud™ Integration app runs. For example, if you app is running in United States, the URL would be: integration.cloud.tibco.com
What to do next Copy the values for "Client ID" and "Client Secret", to be used later when you create the Box Connection.
