Updates to Search Relevance & Performance

In January, updates were released to Box's search tokenizer, improving the relevancy of search results and performance. This change does not effect how metadata is tokenized.

Notable changes to the API-initiated searches include:

• The ability to use "stop words", for example "the", "is" "at", "which", and "on".
• Improved Japanese text tokenization and improved search results.

See the full-text search documentation for more information on how to search using Box's API.

New Zip Download APIs available

A new collection of APIs are now available that allows developers to create a Zip file containing a specified list of files and folders. We've updated the reference documentation for this Zip Download API. SDK support for these new endpoints is currently in development and scheduled to be released in the next 3 months.

Change to enterprise events for content access

Starting today, the enterprise event stream will begin producing new content access events.

A new CONTENT_ACCESS event is triggered when a file was accessed by an authorized user or programmatically by a Box application.

See the enterprise events documentation for more information on other event types.

Changes to Metadata Query API syntax

The Metadata Query API has been updated to require explicitly defined response fields.

curl -X POST https://api.box.com/2.0/metadata_queries/execute_read \
      -H 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" '
      -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
      -d '{
        "from": "enterprise_123456.customerInfo",
        "query": "tav >= :value",
        "query_params": {
          "value": 200000
        },
        "fields": [
          "name",
          "metadata.enterprise_123456.customerInfo.tav"
       ],
        "ancestor_folder_id": "0"
      }'

Additionally, the response format now returns a list of items rather than a list of query results. Any metadata is now nested within the item, rather than listed side-by-side with the item. Only fields specified in the field array - as well as any base fields - are returned in the response.

{
  "entries": [{
    "id": "394384323",
    "type": "file",
    "etag": 1,
    "name": "Contract.pdf",
    "metadata": {
      "enterprise_123456": {
        "customerInfo": {
          "$parent": "folder_12345,",
          "$scope": "enterprise_123456",
          "$template": "customerInfo",
          "$version": 1,
          "tav": 1000000
        }
      }
    }
  }]
}

Legacy syntax

For reference, the API would previously return all standard fields for an item as well as the matched metadata.

curl -X POST https://api.box.com/2.0/metadata_queries/execute_read \
      -H 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" '
      -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
      -d '{
        "from": "enterprise_123456.customerInfo",
        "query": "tav >= :value",
        "query_params": {
          "value": 200000
        },
        "ancestor_folder_id": "0"
      }'

The response body previously returned the items as a list of entries, each containing an item and a metadata instance.

{
  "entries":[
    {
      "item":{
        "type":"file",
        "id":"394384323",
        "name": "Contract.pdf",
        "file_version":{
          "type":"file_version",
          "id":"33482348",
          "sha1":"69888bb1bff455d1b2f8afea75ed1ff0b4879bf6"
        },
        ...
      },
      "metadata":{
        "enterprise_123456":{
          "customerInfo":{
            "tav": 1000000,
            "$id": "01234500-12f1-1234-aa12-b1d234cb567e",
            "$parent": "folder_12345,",
            "$scope": "enterprise_123456",
            "$template": "customerInfo",
            "$type": "customerInfo-6bcba49f-ca6d-4d2a-a758-57fe6edf44d0",
            "$typeVersion": 2,
            "$version": 1,
            "$canEdit": true
          }
        }
      }
    },
    ...
  ],
  "limit": 20,
  "next_marker":"AAAAAmVYB1FWec8GH6yWu2nwmanfMh07IyYInaa7DZDYjgO1H4KoLW29vPlLY173OKsci6h6xGh61gG73gnaxoS+o0BbI1/h6le6cikjlupVhASwJ2Cj0tOD9wlnrUMHHw3/ISf+uuACzrOMhN6d5fYrbidPzS6MdhJOejuYlvsg4tcBYzjauP3+VU51p77HFAIuObnJT0ff"
}

This legacy syntax will remain available for any existing Metadata Query API users only. The legacy syntax will be turned off When all existing customers have been migrated over to the new syntax.
