Box Sources in Synchronization Tasks

When you configure a

synchronization

task to use a Box source, you can configure the source properties.

The source properties appear on the

Source

page of the

Synchronization

Task wizard when you specify a Box connection.

The general properties display the name and description of the Box source. Configure the source and advanced properties for the source object.

The following table describes the Box source properties:

Property	Description
Connection	Name of the source connection.
Source Type	Source type. Select Single for a single source object.
Source Object	Source object for the synchronization task. Choose one of the following options: Enter the name of the CSV file from which you want to read data. Enter Entities to search Box objects based on the search criteria specified in the Box connection.

You can also configure advanced target properties when you schedule the

synchronization

task. Advanced target properties appear on the

Schedule

page of the

Synchronization

Task wizard.

The following table describes the Box advanced source properties:

Advanced Property	Description
Source Filter	Not applicable in Box Connector.
Box Source File ID	The file ID or the folder ID that you want to use when you read data from a CSV file in Box. The ID you enter in this property overrides the value specified in the Box File or Folder ID field when you create the Box connection. If you do not enter a value, the task uses the Box File or Folder ID that is specified in the Box connection.
