Box API filter records based on created_by Box UserId field

143 views Asked by At

The current folder listing API call responds with all the contents/items of folder. I have a requirement to filter the contents of a folder based on created_by field

Can you kindly let me know if this is already supported in BOX api calls?

This is not currently supported. You can use the Search API to find content that is owned by a particular user, but not created by a particular user. Due to Box's collaboration model you cannot infer anything about creation from ownership, or vice-versa. As such, your only option is to get the folder items and perform the filtering client-side.
