We here are Eustace Consulting use Box.com for all of our file management and storage needs. One of the great wins is the ability to integrate with salesforce.com.
Problem:
One of our customers recently had an issue that she could not embed the Box.com visualforce page on a custom object page layout. The custom object is a “Project” Object.
Solution:
In order to accomplish this, no coding is needed. Just the tweaking of a few parameters. Here are the steps to follow:
1. After installing the box.com standard integration, go to Setup->Develop->Pages
2. Go into an existing box.com page and copy the Apex Code on the page, as we are going to copy-paste and modify the areas that are underlined in green.
2. Click on “New” to create a new Visualforce page, as shown below:
3. Copy and Paste the code, replacing the bolded areas with the new custom object. In this case, the custom object is Project, so the API name is Project__c
4. After saving the new page, simply drag and drop it onto your custom object and you are good to go!
