Introducing Box SDK v10, a major release designed to elevate your developer experience and streamline integration with Box Content Cloud. Currently available as a separate sdk-gen branch, v10 will ultimately become the main branch.
v10Full API Support — Complete coverage of the Box API ecosystem, giving you access to all the latest features and functionalities to build feature-rich applications.
Rapid API Updates — Our new auto-generation approach enables Box API additions within days, ensuring you can leverage the most up-to-date features without delay.
Embedded Documentation — All objects and parameters are documented directly in the SDK source code, keeping essential information in one place.
Enhanced Convenience Methods — New methods for authentication, chunk uploads, automatic retries, retry strategy, and more.
This version includes the Box Next Generation SDK artifact, previously developed in parallel to core Box SDKs. To facilitate migration and provide access to the newest features, we'll soon release an additional major version combining both artifacts. Migration to v10 includes breaking changes, please review the migration guide for details. For more information, see the SDK versioning strategy document. Follow developer changelog for future updates.

Introducing a new major version of Box Python SDK v4 that includes two packages — the manually maintained boxsdk package and the generated box_sdk_gen
Introducing a new major version of Box Python SDK v4 that includes two packages — the manually maintained boxsdk package and the generated box_sdk_gen package. The coexisting packages provide easier access to the latest Box API features and support gradual migration to the standalone generated namespace.
v4 of Box Python SDK supports Python versions: 3.8+. Compared to v3, Python 3.6 and 3.7 are no longer supported.For more information about migrating to v4 visit v3 to v4 migration guide
v4With this SDK version, alongside the existing boxsdk package, we’re introducing a new box_sdk_gen package, which gives you access to:
Full API Support — Complete coverage of the Box API ecosystem, giving you access to all the latest features and functionalities to build feature-rich applications.
Rapid API Updates — Our new auto-generation approach enables Box API additions within days, ensuring you can leverage the most up-to-date features without delay.
Embedded Documentation — All objects and parameters are documented directly in the SDK source code, keeping essential information in one place.
Enhanced Convenience Methods — New methods for authentication, chunk uploads, automatic retries, retry strategy, and more.
This version allows you to gradually migrate your codebase to the box_sdk_gen package. The key differences between the packages are documented in the package migration guide.
Ultimately, we recommend to migrate to v10 which includes only the generated box_sdk_gen package. To migrate from v4 to v10 follow this migration guide.
