I am using the box java sdk 2.8.2 to move some folders around as a part of automation.

A call to public BoxFolder.Info moveFolderToUser​(String sourceUserID) throws the following exception . The move happens succesfully but the BoxFolder.Info object is null. Any thoughts?

     This GitHub issue seems similar to the issue you are seeing. Is there something in your program that is setting a timeout on the execution of the code calling the Box API?

    No there is nothing in my code like that.

     

    The public BoxFolder.Info moveFolderToUser(String sourceUserID)  method in BoxUser class calls the disconnect() method in BoxJSONResponse which is throwing this exception
