Hi,I’m trying to use the python API to download files from a collaborator shared folder. I’m using a free developer account. I made an app and it was authorized (by myself). It was working fine in March 2024 and stopped working when I tried today (Sept 13 2024).```auth = CCGAuth(client_id='xxx',client_secret='xxx',user='xxx')client = Client(auth)user =  client.user().get()"POST https://api.box.com/oauth2/token" 400 77{'date': 'Fri, 13 Sep 2024 17:49:32 GMT', 'content-type': 'application/json', 'strict-transport-security': 'max-age=31536000', 'set-cookie': 'box_visitor_id=66e478e2429fb8.44475236; expires=Sat, 13-Sep-2025 17:49:32 GMT; Max-Age=31536000; path=/; domain=.box.com; secure; SameSite=None, bv=PARTNERS-28114; expires=Fri, 20-Sep-2024 17:49:32 GMT; Max-Age=604800; path=/; domain=.app.box.com; secure, cn=33; expires=Sat, 13-Sep-2025 17:49:32 GMT; Max-Age=31536000; path=/; domain=.app.box.com; secure, site_preference=desktop; path=/; domain=.box.com; secure', 'cache-control': 'no-

As I understand it, the Enterprise plan includes a limit of 100,000 API calls per month. Upon reviewing the Admin Console, I noticed there are "Chargeable" and "Non-Chargeable" API calls. Could you please clarify if "Non-Chargeable" API calls are also counted toward the 100,000 API calls per month limit?

I have a question regarding rate limiting for license-based APIs. developer.box.com Rate Limits - Box Developer Documentation Explore the Box APIs and SDKs to use for app development, API documentation, developer support resources, and access the Box Developer Console Is the license-based API rate limit after publishing a custom app related to the plan that the party issuing OAuth (i.e., the developer of the custom app) has signed up for, which increases the count when making API calls from the app? Or does the contracted plan of the user of the app affect the API call limit?

Hi there! I’m hoping to audit users to ensure that everyone is on Box Drive instead of Box Sync, we’ve been trying to change all our users over to ensure they’re on Box Drive and more up to date!Is there a way they can monitor this or pull a report on this in Box? 

I am new to Box.I singn up as developer user and set up a customized app with OAuth2.0 and JWT authentication.After making project [ box-java-sdk-samples/box-appusers-java-server-sample at master · box/box-java-sdk-samples · GitHub]  run locally,  I created an App User and a folder named Test Folder and a file named test.txt simultaneously.But the created folder and file are not shown in https://app.box.com/folder/0.Why? and how to see the uploaded files in console？

I’ve seen the example of how to use an app token for a limited access app in the original .NET SDK but have yet to figure it out for the .NET GEN SDK. Basically, I’ve got a Client ID and an App Token that need to create a BoxClient but none of the methods I’ve tried work. Both CcgConfig and JwtConfig objects want clientSecrets or other information. What am I missing?

I'm looking for a way to optimize my current Box folder scanning function to reduce the number of API calls made to Box.Currently, I have a desktop application that scans specific Box folders within my organization. Below is the scanning function in Java:private static BoxItem getBoxItemRec(BoxFolder initialFolder, Path locations, int index) throws NotFoundException {    Path currentPath = locations.subpath(0, index + 1);    String location = locations.getName(index).toString();    for (BoxItem.Info info : initialFolder.getChildren()) {        if (info.getName().equalsIgnoreCase(location)) {            if (locations.getNameCount() == index + 1) return (BoxItem) info.getResource();            else return getBoxItemRec((BoxFolder) info.getResource(), locations, index + 1);        }    }    throw new NotFoundException(currentPath + " not exist!");}  Is there a way to retrieve only the new files that were added within the last X days without scanning the entire Box folder? Ideally, instead

Is there a more efficient way to retrieve a BoxItem (either a Folder or File) directly by its path in Box?Currently, my approach involves starting at the root folder and recursively scanning through the items, matching each part of the path until I reach the desired item.For example, with the path "Logs/Ben", I start at the root, iterate through its children until I find the "Logs" folder, then iterate through its children until I find the "Ben" folder.This method works, but it involves multiple API calls, which I believe could be optimized.Is there a way to directly access a BoxItem using its full path, thereby reducing the number of API calls my application needs to make?Any guidance or alternative approaches would be greatly appreciated.

I have upgraded my box SDK version (2.32.0 → 4.11.1)In 2.32.0 there is a way to create shared link to BoxItem object:private String createSharedPath(BoxItem item) {if (Objects.isNull(item)) return null;BoxSharedLink.Permissions permissions = new BoxSharedLink.Permissions();permissions.setCanDownload(true);permissions.setCanPreview(false);BoxSharedLink sharedLink = item.createSharedLink(BoxSharedLink.Access.COMPANY, null, permissions);return sharedLink.getDownloadURL();}In 4.11.1 BoxItem does not include createSharedLink function.How can I perform the same thing in the new version? I could not found anything familiar in the docs   

I'm the developer of an online logbook for pilots.  For years, I've had oAuth2 support to allow users to back up their data to Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive.  I'd like to add Box.com as an option.  The technical piece of this is pretty straightforward - but one thing I need is a Box.com logo that I can use in the UI where people set up the oAuth connection.  Dropbox, Onedrive, and Google Drive all grant permission to use - and provide approved logos! - for this legitimate purpose (with conditions, of course!). I can't find anything about how to do this with Box.

I have two questions on the Box waterfall permissions set-up:Users with limited access should still be able to see the tree structureIf I create a folder with subfolders, and only allow certain user categories access to certain subfolders, then these user categories will see the subfolder on their all files page (but not the main folder). I would like however that the tree structure “upstream” is visible to everyone.For example: Main folder “HR”, with subfolder 1 “payroll” and subfolder 2 “firm activities”. Everyone will have access to subfolder 2 “firm activities”, but only the group management will also have access to subfolder 1 “payroll”. In this example, I would like everyone to be able to see that “firm activities” is a subfolder to “HR”, but not that there exists a subfolder 1 “payroll”. Is this possible? Restrict content creation I would like users to be able to create new folders as of a certain level in the tree structure. For example, users cannot create new folders in main

I am using BOX for Salesforce, and I would like to use the default "Set Template Folder" flow to set up a template.By default, the flow is executed when a record is created, and BOX folders are created for records that do not require them, just like other records.I would like to change this so that the BOX folder is created when the "Create Folder" button is clicked, instead of when the record is created. How can I do this? I am new to using BOX and Salesforce, so I would appreciate it if you could provide detailed instructions.

My boss can't log in to his box with his Email address and password because he is asked for a 6 digit authentication code. He doesn't remember setting up 2-step verification for his box account, so he doesn't have Authenticator set up on his phone. Nor does he receive the 6-digit authenticator code on his mobile social networking sites or in his email. Is there any way to reset his account?

Hello!I receive the error message that 23 files are not syncing. I always avoid using special characters in the file names, so this should not be the issue. I have submitted the error logs through the Box Sync application. Are you able to find the logs? Can you find out what the problem is? Thankful for any help.Best wishes,Sebastian
