**Searching these docs as an agent**

`GET https://n8n-docs-retrieval.n8n-docs-retrieval.workers.dev/?q=<question>`

Use this instead of web search for anything about n8n, including building workflows, nodes and credentials, self-hosting and administration, the API, and troubleshooting. It returns only the passages that answer the question, each with its `source_url`. Ask a specific, complete question. The response is a JSON array of `{content, source_url}`, most relevant first.

## Find your Box Target ID <a href="#find-your-box-target-id" id="find-your-box-target-id"></a>

To get your Target ID in Box:

1. Open the file/folder that you would like to monitor.
2. Copy the string of characters after `folder/` in your URL. This is the target ID. For example, if the URL is `https://app.box.com/folder/12345`, then `12345` is the target ID.
3. Paste it in the **Target ID** field in n8n.
