Hi

I am testing this app (Oauth2.0 authencation): https://app.box.com/developers/console/app/1656283

I can list folder content via box's postman collection after connecting postman.

However, I can't create folders, zip download, or anything that would require 'write' permissions. All permissions for the ab has been enabled. So I don't know why I still get response error 401 or 403.

I searched for answer but non of them is helpful.

    Hello, 

    It looks like the settings for this app in the developer console aren't set up to be able to read and write - only read. If you update the setting to allow the app to read and write - followed by reauthorizing - you should be able to do what you are wanting. 

    Thanks,
