How authentication works
The integration uses Box OAuth 2.0. The user authorizes Edict IQ in Box, and the connection is handled through the Edict IQ integration layer. Access tokens remain bounded by the authorized Box user and application scopes.
Box integration
Connect Box to Edict IQ
Connect Box as a read-only document source for governed evidence workflows in Edict IQ. Access remains limited by the connected user's Box permissions.
Before you start
- You need permission in Box to authorize the Edict IQ application.
- You need an Edict IQ workspace role that can manage integrations.
- Edict IQ is configured for read-only Box access and does not modify or delete Box content.
Configuration
Open Box from Edict IQ
Open your Edict IQ workspace, go to Settings > Integrations and choose Box. Edict IQ starts the Box OAuth authorization flow for your account.
Review the requested access
Confirm the read-only access shown by Box. The connection remains subject to the permissions of the Box user who authorizes it.
Complete the connection in Edict IQ
Return to the integrations area in your Edict IQ workspace and complete the Box connection. Credentials and provider tokens are never displayed in the workspace UI.
Use Box as an evidence source
Approved Box content can then be referenced in governed evidence workflows, while review state, ownership and audit activity remain managed in Edict IQ.
Read-only access
The Box application is configured for read-only content access. Administrative, Box Sign, Box AI and write permissions are not requested.
Read files and folders- Read content available to the connected Box user within the user's existing Box permissions.
No write access- Edict IQ does not create, modify, rename or delete Box files or folders through this integration.
No administrative access- The integration does not request enterprise administration, user management or as-user capabilities.
No Box Sign or Box AI access- Signature-management and Box AI permissions are not requested.
Disconnect or revoke access
To stop access, remove or disable the Edict IQ connection in your Edict IQ workspace, or revoke the application's access from Box. Revoked authorization can no longer be used for Box API access.
