Get Folder Lock

To get a list of the current locks on a folder in Box, call the GET /folder_locks/ API with the id of the folder supplied as a folder_id query string parameter.

Folder Locks

When using any folder lock API endpoints, you must be authenticated as the owner/co-owner of the folder you are trying to access.
