Box.net API

The Box platform makes it easy for you to utilize our storage for your application. With our XML-based API you can develop modules, applications, and plugins that can upload, download, and share files from Box.net accounts.

With our latest OpenBox Services, users can bring the power of web applications directly into their Box accounts. Edit photos and images online with Picnik, work on your Word and Excel files using Zoho, preview documents with Scribd's iPaper, and much more.

Third parties are encouraged to contribute their own applications to the extensive Box network of nearly two million users.

Hey Guys - I'm Aaron from Box.net, and I wanted to update everyone on the status of Box Enabled, our upcoming development platform. We are in the final stages of planning a soft-launch for the site, and will soon start accepting new projects. Once we have our final documentation in order, things will go live. Thanks for the patience, and feel free to email me at any time.

- Aaron [at] Box
