Add ability to get a user's collaborations via API
Since there is a function to get a list of invitations to the group, I want to provide the same to the users.
Like,
https://api.box.com/2.0/users/:user_id/collaborations

We don’t currently plan to provide such an API, however please leave a comment if you have more information about how this would be used. In the interim, you can identify all of a user’s collaborations by requesting items in the user’s root folder (id = 0) and filtering out those where the owned_by user is the current user. This would require an additional API call for each item to get the collaboration id, but if you are only interested in knowing which items re collaborated versus owned by the user, it may be sufficient for your purposes.

Would this method work when the user is external to our domain ?

In current specification, the numbers of collaborated users are configured as CAN_VIEW_PATH = True via API and it is causing us big issue that we get the parents folders of actual invited folders included to the folder list of FolderID = 0.
