This worklet will check to see if Box is installed and if it isn’t, will download and install it.

Hi @Nic,



Jus wondering if you have the updated code for this worklet template? Box have two installer files right now, Box.pkg and BoxToolsinstaller.dmg.



Thanks!

This is an old one and might need updating. The dmg file is the disk image that gets expanded, and it looks like the worklet is downloading that, mounting it, and copying the .app file to the applications directory.



A pkg file is a Mac installer that includes some scripts to put files in the right places and doesn’t just contain the .app file like the dmg file does. You might need to update the curl command to get the newer dmg file, or instead use the pkg file and run that to complete the install. Let me know if you get stuck and I can try getting it on my machine.



If you run it as is, does it actually install Box?
