Install Box Tools for document editing

To edit documents in Oracle Site Activate, you must install the Box Tools app to make edit functionality accessible to you on your machine.

Note:

You need to complete this installation task only if you have the document editing permission applied to your Oracle Site Activate user account. If you require the editing permission, please contact your Oracle Site Activate administrator.
  1. Access the Box Downloads web URL at: box.com/resources/downloads
  2. On the Desktop & Mobile apps page, in the Box Tools section, click the link to download the proper app version for your Mac or Windows operating system.
  3. An executable file (i.e., BoxToolsInstaller.exe) downloads to your local machine. Click the file and follow the on-screen instructions to install Box Tools to your machine.
  4. Access the following Box Developer Guides web URL: developer.box.com/guides/embed/ui-elements/custom-domains/
  5. On the Boxdev Safelisting on Windows page, click the “here” link that immediately follows this text on the page: “Before starting the domain safelisting installation, please download the required scripts from the provided .rar.
    When you click "here" the download automatically begins.
  6. Extract the downloaded script files to your preferred machine location (e.g., a folder on your C drive).
  7. Access the location to which you extracted the script files. Using a text editor application, open the following file: Add_OpenWith_WhiteListed_Domain.reg
  8. Replace the file’s placeholder domain text with accurate text that identifies the last part of your organization’s valid Oracle Site Activate domain. For example, replace the file’s “*.exampleDomain.net” with "*.MyOrganizationNameActivateProd.org". You must enter the appropriate name for your organization’s Oracle Site Activate instance, which may also identify the environment (i.e., UAT, PROD, etc.).
  9. Close the text file and save your changes when prompted.
  10. Open a Command Prompt with Administrator privileges, and enter the following command: "reg import Add_OpenWith_WhiteListed_Domain.reg".
When the Command Prompt window displays a success message, close the window. You have completed this task.
