We're trying to connect Box using JWT authorization and provided all the required information for connection however we're getting below error.

 

Error:

Hi, 

Based on the limited knowledge of Mulesoft I have (I just googled the configuration steps), it looks like the application needs to be an oauth app... not JWT. Can you try using an oauth custom app instead and report back? 

Thanks, 

Alex, Box Developer Advocate
