I have successfully connected Box to FME Desktop in the Web Connections dialog, tested the connection, authorized the app connection with my Box credentials, and uploaded a test file.

 

When I try to do the same on FME Server/server-side connection, I have to first authorize the server with a Client ID & Client Secret Key. I have obtained and pasted these in, but to no avail. Any pointers would be appreciated!

 

Edit: This is the error message I receive:

    Error: redirect_uri_mismatch

    You will have a greater chance at success posting this to the Box Developer Forum. We're just a bunch of end users and admins.

    Hi Bob, thanks. Looks like someone went ahead and moved the thread for me!

    Hi everybody,

     

    Didn't find an answer here. Worked with my DevOps admin to setup proper 0Auth credentials via Box (Client ID, Client Secret Key, and redirect to localhost). I had done it correctly for a local FME user, but something was missing to get FME setup with Box in server-side/multi-user environment. The Client ID & Client Secret Key were correct, but the localhost redirect would not work.

     

    Redirecting to the FME Server 0Auth page did not work either, until SSL encryption was running properly on both the machine (Windows Server) and FME Server. I do not know the specifics of that setup, but after getting SSL encryption running, we were able to successfully redirect Box 0Auth requests within FME to the FME Server's 0Auth page. I know this may not be the step by step instructions someone reading this may be hoping for, but I hope it leads you in the right direction.

    Hi ,

     

    It's interesting that you've been using the Box API with FME. I develop with the Box API in nodejs normally, but I'm testing the feasibility of using FME Desktop for one off content upload / processing jobs. Are you able provide details of how you configured the web service in FME Desktop please?

     

    Thanks Matt.
