Are there API limitations in Box for education?

Hi @BenSnow ,

I don’t think there is any distinction between those, and the error doesn’t seem to be related with API limits.

Can you tell us more about the application authentication type and how is it authenticating?

Cheers

It’s authenticating with OAuth2 with this endpoint: https://www.box.com/api/oauth2/token

This is how the connector is configured: Configuration of Box

I take it there shouldn’t in general be a limitation for fetching data via the API when a “Box for Education” customer.

I’m aware it’s not ideal for me to be posting here when I don’t have access to the actual environment in question 😅 There could be any number of things going on here.

Thank you for your time 🙂

No worries @BenSnow

A few common pointers here to help diagnose:

• A developer token always points to the security context of the user who created it.


• An OAuth token is always associated with the managed user that authorized the application


• A CCG or JWT can be used to authenticate a user, but typically they authenticate a service account


• Depending on the configurations the above may be able to impersonate a user


• To list the enterprise users, not only the app must be set to Manage users, but also if using the managed user it must be a admin or co-admin. If using a service user then the applicaiton configuration is sufficient.

Hope this helps.
