I’m new to the Box API, and I’m trying (and failing) to get JWT Authetication working


I’ve created a Custom App in my free individual account which shows enterprise id 0 I downloaded the JSON file that was generated containing the app settings.

auth = JWTAuth.from_settings_file(‘0_i21yxr8x_config.json’)


auth.authenticate_instance()


client = Client(auth)

When I run my code I get an error

boxsdk.exception.BoxOAuthException:


Message: Please check the ‘sub’ claim. The ‘sub’ specified is invalid.


Status: 400


URL: https://api.box.com/oauth2/token


Method: POST

I read somewhere the “enterpriseID”: “0” in the json file might be causing this issue. How do I get a working enterprise ID? Or is there a way to use the User ID?
