What a Migration Specialist Should Know

about 

Box

Box is a:

Hybrid Application


This means Box typically runs as a desktop app on employees' PCs that store data in cloud-based databases and APIs that are run by Box.

Universal Migrator extracts data from Box via:

API Connections

Other Notes:

Contact Name Assist


In Box, some contacts only have a "Full Name" field and nothing absolutely identifies it as being a person or a company. Universal Migrator will attempt to determine whether a name looks like a person's name or a company name. The Migration Specialist and the Firm Administrator should review this and make any tweaks if necessary.

The following credentials are required:

Admin Box Credentials


The Migration Specialist will need an Administrator username and password into Box in order to extract your data.

Admin Credentials into the Box File Server


The Migration Specialist will need the Administrator username and password into the Box file server in order to extract your documents.
This should be the Administrator account and not another account that has administrative access.

The computer used to migrate from Box:

Can be located Anywhere


Because data is extracted from Box via the internet, the migration can be run from any suitable location.
