What Box Hero (BYOK) is for
Box Hero (BYOK) lets an AI assistant read your own Box Hero data through the Box Hero API with a key you supply (Box Hero API token (one per team)). Read-only: 11 tools (get_team, list_items, get_item, list_item_attributes, list_locations, list_partners, list_transactions, get_transaction, list_purchase_orders, get_purchase_order, list_sales_orders). The BYOK key travels with each request, is used for that one call only and is never stored, logged or cached; it is only ever sent to rest.boxhero-app.com. Unofficial connector by Unify Dynamics LLC: not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Box Hero. Box Hero and its logos are trademarks of their owners and are used only to say which service the connector works with.
Ask your assistant things like:
- "Which Box Hero team is this token for?"
- "What items do I have in Box Hero and how many are in stock?"
- "Show Box Hero item 123 with its stock by location"
- "What custom fields do my Box Hero items have?"
- "Which locations do I have in Box Hero?"
- "Who are my suppliers in Box Hero?"

BYOK key
You bring your own Box Hero Box Hero API token (one per team) (https://www.boxhero.io/docs/developers/api/quickstart). Your assistant sends it in the X-Upstream-Key header with each request. ConnectorBay uses it for that one call only: it is never stored, logged or cached, never shown in an answer, and it is only sent to rest.boxhero-app.com over https, with no redirects followed. Create a key with the fewest permissions the tools need (read-only if the provider offers it), and revoke it at the provider whenever you like.
