Box Hubs APIs

Box Hubs APIs enable you to programmatically create, manage, and collaborate on content hubs within your applications. Hubs provide a centralized space for organizing and sharing content across teams and projects.

1. Hubs

   • Delete hub
   • List all hubs
   • List all hubs for requesting enterprise
   • Get hub information by ID

2. Hub Collaborations

   • Create hub collaboration
   • Update hub collaboration
   • Remove hub collaboration
   • Get hub collaborations
   • Get hub collaboration by collaboration ID

3. Hub Items

AI Studio v2

With the release of the newest version of the AI Studio functionality, we introduced the enhancements listed below.

• Users receive a notification in case of any issues with an agent directly in the AI Studio UI.
• Agents are validated in real time. The ones that don't pass validation are not visible for the users.

Admins can:

• Control the suggested questions displayed when the user starts interacting with a custom AI agent.
• See the details of a request and response of a LLM, for example the system prompt, model, custom instructions.
• Control the parameters of a Box AI image processor in a custom agent. The parameters are necessary to ask a LLM about a specific image.

You can find more information in our API and product documentation.

Enhanced extract agent

Today we introduced the new enhanced extract agent powered by Gemini 2.5 Pro. It employs chain-of-thought processing to provide the best answer, but also to tell the developer the reason it believes this answer is the correct one.

The enhanced extract agent:

• Offers an improved key-value pair extraction from complex documents with higher accuracy.
• Effortless access with Box UI: activate the feature with a single click.
• Transforms unstructured data into meaningful metadata attached to files.
• Enables faster insights and discovery using the Box Metadata search tool.

Go to the Autofilling Metadata in Templates section in our product documentation to learn more about its capabilities.
