Why use Vercel Connect with Box?
Credentials on demand
Request Box credentials only when your application or agent needs them instead of copying secrets into application code.
Access for the right subject
Request user-authorized Box access so actions follow the identity and permissions of the person using your application.
Centralized credential management
Manage Box credentials in one place and retrieve them through a consistent runtime API.
Vercel-native controls
Bind connections to the projects and environments that need them while Vercel OIDC authenticates each runtime request.
Use Box with your stack
Follow a complete setup for the Connect SDK or a supported agent framework.
Add Box to an existing Vercel application with the Connect SDK.
