July Box Platform Product Launches

We launched several new updates to our API and client libraries including:

• Box Node.js SDK: The Box Node.js SDK is an officially supported SDK from Box, meaning we'll continue to update it as new features and capabilities become available via our APIs.

• Annotations are now available in Beta: Annotations are a new feature in our file preview experience that allows users of your app to add point comments and highlight text directly on an embedded file preview. To join the beta, please fill out this form.

• Java Sample App: Check out this example app that shows how to authenticate, create App Users, and upload and preview files with the Box Java SDK.
