Hello, I am new to developing for the Box platform and having a hard time understanding the first steps. I went through Getting started with Box for Salesforce development: Part 1 and Part 2, but they are using the box Toolkit which doesn’t offer the full API functionality. I’ve installed the Box SDK in my Salesforce Sandbox but there’s so many classes and seemingly no guide for how to get started. Can I use the box.Toolkit along with the SDK? My initial tasks will be to maintain a folder structure separate from the default to hold archived files, and to push files into this separate folder structure.

I was able to cobble together some working code that retrieved folder contents, but i wasnt able to deploy to another sandbox because box.Folder doesnt seem to be accessible in the latest version of the toolkit/sdk. i then reworked my solution to to use a generic request but still using boxToolkit.sendRequest, but that rendered my test class and mock useless. I still dont see where to find the calls needed to use the box sdk so im just pieceing things together from github examples. how do i use a mock class to intercept the boxToolkit.sendrequest?
