Hi,
I am a dev for a research project. Each month a dataset is collected and uploaded to a particular Box folder to be shared with research partners. I am not the owner of the target Box folder, just a dev assigned to automate the upload process.
I have looked at the docs but have confused myself. The Owner of the upload folder needs to create an API key/token or otherwise grant access for an automated process to upload a file. I am not sure though what level/type of access to ask the folder Owner to grant. The code I write will run unattended once a month. It should not run “as me” as I will be reassigned to a different project after this uploader is running.
Is a “Service Account” all that is needed? I will need to educate the Owner on what to enable and I am not sure what to tell him at this time.
Thank you in advance
