Was trying to create an app user following this guide, developer.box.com App Users - Box Developer Documentation Explore the Box APIs and SDKs to use for app development, API documentation, developer support resources, and access the Box Developer Console and with the following api request: POST - https://api.box.com/2.0/users request: {“is_platform_access_only”: true , “name”:“test”} response: { “type”: “error”, “status”: 403, “code”: “access_denied_insufficient_permissions”, “help_url”: “http://developers.box.com/docs/#errors”, “message”: “Access denied - insufficient permission”, “request_id”: “avrw5xhevqe1xti8” } What is missing? Can you please assist? (I have verified I have sufficient permissions to create a user which is not an app user and it was created successfully) Thanks
I’m trying to build some features using the Folder Lock API: https://developer.box.com/reference/post-folder-locks/. However, when I try to do a simple curl POST command to lock a folder, I always receive a 404 “not_found” regardless of the folder I pass to it. The GET command works fine and obviously returns an empty array since I haven’t successfully locked a folder yet, but I know the endpoint and my access token works fine. Are there other exceptions to this feature that aren’t documented? I have ensured I am the sole owner of the folder (no co-owners), but it has been shared with others a Editors. For added detail, I am using the Oauth 2.0 method for access. Any help/guidance on locking folders via the API would be much appreciated!
Hi Rui, Thank you very much for your answer. This is exactly what I was looking for. Now I think the way to achieve my goal is to create a webhook with ‘COLLABORATION.ACCEPTED’ trigger, that way I can assign the approval task to the user. So I need the user id to assign the task. But is ‘collab.id’ the user id? The API documentation doesn’t say so but I note that you wrote ‘Collaborator:’. Cheers
While sending multipart-form data POST request to BOX from ServiceNow, I am getting this error from the Box API: {“code”:“bad_request”,“help_url”:“http://developers.box.com/docs/#errors",“status”:400,“message”:"API upload did not contain a file part”,“type”:“error”} The payload which is being sent over on this request, looks something like this: –xXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXx" ,Content-Disposition:form-data; name=“attributes”,{“name”:“config.txt”,“parent”:{“id”:“0”}},–xXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXx,Content-Type:text/plain,Content-Disposition:form-data; name=“file”; filename=“config.txt” ,[B@7e8de4,–xXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXx– Any idea of what I am doing wrong here?
Hello, I came across an article discussing the monitoring of user activity on files and the process of extracting them using the GUI. Box Support Tracking User Activity on Files Box enables you to track user activity on virtually any file in two ways: Recent activity, via avatars that display when you preview a file Lifetime activity via Content Insights, which provide co... I’m curious to know if this functionality is currently available through an API or if there are plans to make it available in the future. Thank you!
I have created an app with a v2 webhook. The webhook triggers a JAVA application when it runs locally everything is good, but when the same application is being run inside a VM, the webhook is not getting triggered. Can anyone help what could be the issue or where can I see the logs to find the problem?
