Hello,We use DocuSign for the signature of all our sales orders. With the support of DocuSign, we have created an integration (or Connect) between DocuSign and Box. This captures sales orders as they are signed. We are also hoping to use this connection to download a bulk history of a load of DocuSign signed envelopes.We have tried this a number of times - from different browsers, clearing cache & cookies etc - to sync these legacy envelopes to Box. The publish and sync works, but each time, it delivers a different amount of envelopes to our connected Box folder. DocuSign are saying that because the CSV publish worked on their end (and shows 514 envelopes), the issue is with Box. However, we’re not getting that many envelopes in Box - maximum is around 250, but varies between approx 130 and 290.What else can I try to ensure the integration works as expected?Many thanks,Tom.

Hello all, I’m trying to upload my first app on box. I’m coding in python, using JWT authorization and my company Admin has authorized the application. When I make my authorization call to box, I am returned the following error: {'error': 'invalid_client', 'error_description': 'The client credentials are invalid'} At the moment, I’ve bypassed it with a developer token, but would still like to know what is causing the issue.

We are using box sdk and we are facing issues in injecting data to our System as connector is taking a lot of time in retrieving the data from Box. We are investigating the performance issue.Need your help to check:1. Is there any API to check how many API calls are done and how many are remaining for a account? (Account having multiple users and groups) Is there any method in box sdk which we can use to log all the API calls so that we will be sure how many API calls are happening? We see there is an option of box report in console to check API calls. How is that working and is the API value shown there is per minute or total calls?  

for some reason, I can create a shared link on the site, but it is not displayed during API requests. I tried to create a shared link to the file through the api, however, I get the 403 Forbidden error. What could be wrong? Do I need any special permissions?

Hello Box Team! Couldn’t find this in the documentation so I figured I’d ask here! When a webhook is created, will it notify me when permissions on a file/folder has changed? 

I have been messing around a bit with metadata templates and Box API.  I found that I’m required to use the PUT method when updating a file or folder, but I cannot for the life of me figure out why I keep getting errors from the server.https://developer.box.com/guides/metadata/instances/update/#:~:text=To%20update%20the%20metadata%20to,data%20on%20the%20template%20instance.Using the link above, I have been trying to get the payload to match this exactly, but to no avail.I have tried using “PUT” to post the payload, but I receive an unsupported media type, if I wing it and put POST, it says it’s a bad request.I use POST to apply the template in question, and it works just fine, but I seem to be missing the connection between Powershell,
