Enabling the Box.net portfolio

In order to use the Box.net portfolio, your Moodle site must use HTTPS. In addition, an administrator must obtain a Box.net client ID and secret, as described in Box.net APIv1 migration. The client ID and secret can then be used to configure all Box.net plugins.

  1. Go to Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Portfolios > Manage Portfolios
  2. Activate the Box.net portfolio by selecting 'Enabled and visible' in the dropdown menu
  3. Configure each portfolio by entering the client ID and secret
  4. Save changes

Sending/"pushing" your files to Box.net

  • You can export items such as assignments, chat and forum posts to enabled portfolios such as Box.net. Here is an example with a forum post:
  • At the bottom of your completed forum post are the words "export to portfolio".
