Many of my colleagues use box.com (a commercial cloud storage provider) to store and share data & metadata. Luckily, the awesome boxr R package by Brendan Rocks, @ijlyttle and Nathan Day allows me to read / write files directly from box. But I always forget how to authenticate on a new system - so I wrote a tutorial: "Interacting with box cloud storage: the boxr R package" https://tomsing1.github.io/blog/posts/boxr/ Perhaps it's useful to others as well!
