Hello, all, first-time poster here.
I am wanting to develop an application that sits on a server, and when certain events are triggered, the server will go retrieve a file from Box and do something with it. It may also move and/or delete the file, depending on external circumstances.
Generally speaking, how is this done? I don't want to tie the authentication that my server uses to a person's Box credentials, because it's possible that one day, those credentials will suddenly not be good anymore if the person gets hit by a truck, wins the lottery, or gets offered their dream job at another company.
Is it possible to have credentials that are tied to a machine or app instead of a person? Oh, I need to add that my company uses SSO, so that's another consideration. I don't know how to begin.
