The Box MCP server provides AI tools with secure access to content, connecting agents to your enterprise knowledge in Box. This allows agents to perform advanced search, multi-file analysis, and data extraction across your files, delivering richer context for more intelligent and responsive agentic experiences.
Overview
The remote Box MCP server is a standardized way for AI agents to connect and interact with Box, enabling seamless access to content and AI capabilities across platforms. The Box MCP server acts as a bridge that allows customers and leading AI agent platforms, such as Amazon Quick Suite, to securely query and utilize Box data and AI-powered tools without exposing raw file content. Through OAuth authorization, users can grant AI agents controlled access to their Box accounts, enabling intelligent document handling, advanced search, data extraction, and multi-file AI queries directly within AI agents and platforms.

- Generate new content: Create new content, like a first draft of a marketing brief or a summary of a legal review, based on context from your files in Box
- Maintain complete control: Every interaction is validated against Box's granular permissions, ensuring agents only access the content users are authorized to see
