Hello Box Support,


When the connected App-created user is in the Password Reset stage, we receive the below response while generating the token using the Box credentials.


RESPONSE:
400 - {"error":"password_reset_required","error_description":"User needs to reset password"}


When the user reset the password then we no longer receive this error.


Is there any way to bypass this error even when a user is in the Password Reset stage?


Also, we would like to know the below information:
1. what happens if that user is deactivated from that Box account? What will happen in that case?


2. I need the Box API details to find out when my Box password will expire or when it was last updated.


What is the email of the affected user?

>>> All the users are affected. The box app was created using the user below.
We are facing this issue in the BOX Production instance.
Box Production Enterprise Id - 38156532
Name - Will Docimo, Email - 'personal information-redacted'

 

When did the issue started? 

>>> From the beginning of the development. 
Admin Console >> Enterprise Settings >> Security tab >> Password reset checkbox is enabled in production at the moment. That reset the passwords every 90 days.



How many users are affected? 

>>> All the users. 

Regards,
Viral Hirpara
