I’d like to be able to add analytics event metadata to any Box in Builder, especially since they can be directly linked using the Link property. I’ve successfully overridden the `Core:Button` component, but I can’t find an equivalent `Core:Box` element in the Builder Github Repo. Is it maybe labelled as something else?

Hi Jason,

Thanks for reaching out!

It doesn’t appear that Core:Box is a component that can be overridden since it’s not listed under the Github repo, however we do have similar options, such as Core:Section. Or, as an alternative, you can always create your own custom Box component.
