Where did the "Limited Access App" option go in the Developer Console?

Hi everyone,

 

I have a question regarding the application creation process in the Box Developer Console.

 

Previously, as shown in the official documentation, it was possible to select "Limited Access App" when creating a new application.

However, in my current console, that option no longer appears. Instead, I am only presented with the following three options under "Platform App":

  • OAuth 2.0
  • Server Authentication (JWT)
  • Client Credentials Grant

My questions are:

1. Has the "Limited Access App" type been deprecated or integrated into these other options?

2. If I want to create an app with restricted access (similar to the old Limited Access App), which option should I choose now?

 

I would appreciate any clarification on this change.

 

Thank you!
