IMPORTANT: Admins of sites currently using the Box.net repository are advised to upgrade as soon as possible and run the Box.net-alias-to-copy-conversion tool. See Box.net APIv1 migration for details.
The Box.net repository enables users to copy files from Box.net into Moodle. (Previously a shortcut/alias could be made to a file stored in Box.net, however with Box.net API v2 this is unfortunately no longer possible.)
Enabling the Box.net repository
Note: In order to use he Box.net repository, 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.
- Go to Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Repositories > Manage Repositories
- Activate the Box.net repository by selecting 'Enabled and visible' in the dropdown menu
- Configure each repository by entering the client ID and secret. Make sure you don't include any white space in the text boxes!
- Save changes
Capabilities
There is just one capability, View box.net repository, which is allowed for the default authenticated user role.
