Hi , I am a windows user and we have automated file upload to box folder for purpose of our assignment .

Now in order to upload a file to box folder we need refresh tokens and so far we used to generate these tokens from the below url

http://box-token-generator.herokuapp.com/.

But since some days the link is not working , we can not generate access tokens with the mentioned url . Not sure why . So my query is , is there an another way to generate the tokens other than curl commands ?

 thank you. I don't think anyone at Box actually controls this tool sadly, we are working on a new solution but that won't be available for a while.

 

Please don't share your client ID and secret in public! These are secrets you should not share in a forum like this. Please make sure to reset them.
