[Integrations](https://docs.mineos.ai/knowledge/integrations) # Box Integration ## Automating your Data Types discovery and Privacy operations by integrating MineOS to Box This integration allows you to: - Automate content classification to detect data types stored in your Box files and folders. - Fetching and previewing user data requests from Box. ### Before you start - Make sure your MineOS plan supports integrations. - Make sure you have the enough permissions to allow app integration to your Box account. **Important note:** To allow search against all content owned by all users in the organization, we use the **enterprise\_content** scope. This scope need to be requested by an admin through Box [support channels](https://developer.box.com/support/). Once this scope has been enabled for the user, it will allow that user to query for content across the entire enterprise and not only the content that they have access to. [Refer to Box's article for help.](https://developer.box.com/guides/search/enterprise/)  Failing to do so will prevent MineOS from searching in all the files and content. ### Setting up To connect the Box integration, follow these steps: 1. Log in to your MineOS account. 2. On the left sidebar, click **Inventory.** 3. Click on **Add data source** to open the MineOS Directory. 4. Select for **Box,** click **Add**, then go back to the inventory and open the **Box **page. ![Screenshot 2026-04-28 at 1.03.27](https://docs.mineos.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-04-28%20at%201.03.27.png?width=283&height=268&name=Screenshot%202026-04-28%20at%201.03.27.png) 5. Select the 'Integrations' tab on the left, then select 'Integration' from the list of options, and click **Connect.** This will start the Box authorization process to enable the following permissions: 1. Read all files and folders stored in Box (Required for DSR requests and data classification). 2. Read and write all files and folders stored in Box (Required for DSR Requests) 3. Admin can make calls on behalf of Users (Required for DSR Requests and data classification) 4. Manage app users (Required for DSR Requests and data classification) 5. Manage users (Required for DSR Requests and data classification) 6. When you finish the connection process click '**Save**'. ![](https://docs.mineos.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jul-12-2023-02-24-31-5518-PM.png?width=364&height=364&name=image-png-Jul-12-2023-02-24-31-5518-PM.png) #### Enabling Data Classification Select **'Scan this source using Data Classifier' **and click '**Save**'. You will now see a new 'Data Classifier' panel which allows you to start the scan. ![Screenshot 2026-04-28 at 1.11.01](https://docs.mineos.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-04-28%20at%201.11.01.png?width=670&height=343&name=Screenshot%202026-04-28%20at%201.11.01.png)   #### **What's next?** Read more about the deletion process using integrations [here](https://help.portal.saymine.com/knowledge/managing-deletion-requests-using-integrations).
