I’m runng a script on my local machine:

 

from boxsdk import Client, OAuth2
from boxsdk.exception import BoxAPIException

# Authenticate with Box
oauth2 = OAuth2(
    client_id='xxxxxxxxx',
    client_secret='xxxxxxxxx',
    access_token='xxxxxxx'  # Replace with OAuth token for production
)

client = Client(oauth2)

try:
    # Get the root folder
    root_folder_id = '0'
    folder = client.folder(folder_id=root_folder_id)

    # Print basic folder information
    folder_info = folder.get()
    print(f"Accessing folder: {folder_info.name} (ID: {folder_info.id})")
    print(f"Total item count in folder: {folder_info.item_collectioni'total_count']}")

    # Retrieve and list items in the folder with a higher limit
    items = list(folder.get_items(limit=1000))

    # Check if items are in the folder
    if not items:
        print("No items found in the root folder.")
    else:
        # Print details of all items in the folder
        for item in items:
            print(f"Item: {item.name} (Type: {item.type}, ID: {item.id})")

except BoxAPIException as e:
    print(f"An error occurred: {e}")

print("end script")

And I’m getting this output:

Accessing folder: All Files (ID: 0)
Total item count in folder: 0
No items found in the root folder.
end script




What am I doing wrong?  The box account is full of tons of files.  I should get back something. How can I trouble shoot this?
