Authorization is handled via OAuth so users can grant controlled access from within the client they’re using.\n\n[Learn more in the remote Box MCP server guide](https://developer.box.com/guides/box-mcp/remote/)\n\n\u003e Looking for the self-hosted/local version? See [box-community/mcp-server-box](https://github.com/box-community/mcp-server-box).\n\n---\n\n## Capabilities\n\nThe remote Box MCP server provides tools across several areas, such as:  \n- **User info** (e.g., identify the authenticated user)  \n- **File and folder operations** (read content, list folders, search files/folders, etc.)  \n- **Box AI tools** (Q\u0026A across files, metadata extraction, etc.)  \n\nFor the complete and most up-to-date set of supported tools, see the [remote Box MCP server documentation](https://developer.box.com/guides/box-mcp/remote/).\n\n---\n\n## Setup\n\nTo connect an MCP client to the remote Box MCP server, you’ll first configure an OAuth app in Box, then use its credentials in your client. The preferred path is to use the predefined **Box MCP Server** integration in the [Admin Console](https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043695714-Admin-Console-Guide), but in certain flows (e.g., the [GitHub MCP registry](https://github.com/mcp)), you may need to create your own OAuth app in the [Developer Console](https://app.box.com/developers/console) instead.\n\n### 1. Configure an OAuth app in Box\n\nChoose one of the following options:  \n\n- **Admin Console flow (preferred):** Enable or configure the Box MCP server from **Admin Console → Integrations**.  \n- **Developer Console flow:** [Create an OAuth app](https://developer.box.com/guides/authentication/oauth2/oauth2-setup/) with the proper redirect URI and scopes.  \n\nFor detailed instructions, see the [remote Box MCP server guide](https://developer.box.com/guides/box-mcp/remote/).\n\n\n### 2. Connect from your MCP client\n\nMost clients or platforms let you add a remote MCP server by URL and will guide you through the OAuth flow. Here are some of the details you’ll typically need to provide:\n\n- **Endpoint URL:** `https://mcp.box.com`  \n- **Name:** a name of your choice (e.g., `box-remote-mcp`)  \n- **Authorization:** Bearer token (via OAuth 2.0)  \n- **Client ID** and **Client Secret**: obtained from your app’s credentials (Admin Console for the predefined **Box MCP Server** integration, or Developer Console if you created your own OAuth app)  \n- **Redirect URI**: provided by your client and must be added to your app configuration (via the Admin Console or Developer Console, depending on your flow)  \n\nSee the [remote Box MCP server guide](https://developer.box.com/guides/box-mcp/remote/) for client-specific connection examples (Claude, Copilot Studio, Le Chat).\n\n---\n\n## OAuth \u0026 Discovery\n\nThe remote Box MCP server is an **OAuth‑protected resource** backed by Box’s authorization server:\n\n- [Resource metadata](https://mcp.box.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource)  \n- [Authorization server metadata](https://api.box.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server)  \n\nFor implementation details, see the [Box authentication guide](https://developer.box.com/guides/authentication/).\n\n**Using tokens with the Box API**\n\nAll Box API calls require a valid [Access Token](https://developer.box.com/guides/authentication/tokens/access-tokens/). Example:\n\n```bash\ncurl https://api.box.com/2.0/users/me \\\n  -H \"authorization: Bearer \u003cACCESS_TOKEN\u003e\"\n```\n\n---\n\n## Terms\n\nUse of the Box MCP server and Box APIs is subject to the **Box Terms of Service**:  \nhttps://www.box.com/legal/termsofservice\n\n---\n\n## Support \u0026 Docs\n\n- Remote Box MCP server: https://developer.box.com/guides/box-mcp/remote/  \n- Authentication guide: https://developer.box.com/guides/authentication/  \n- API status: https://status.box.com/  \n- Community: https://community.box.com/\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbox%2Fmcp-server-box-remote","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbox%2Fmcp-server-box-remote","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbox%2Fmcp-server-box-remote/lists"}
