    Hi Murtza,

     

    Thank you for the response. Here's the piece of my code, I'm not sure what you're looking for. But I hope this helps, let me know. Thanks.

     

     

    params = (
    ('response_type', 'code'),
    ('client_id', 'dafdsffdd3***phone number removed for privacy***'),
    ('state', 'OPEPEPEPEPEPE'),
    )

    redirect =False
    response = requests.get('https://account.box.com/api/oauth2/authorize', params=params ,allow_redirects = redirect)
    driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:/CCF/Drivers/chromedriver.exe")
    ......
    .....
    ...... (some piece of code)
    ...............
    ...........
    data = [
    ('grant_type', 'authorization_code'),
    ('code', unique_code),
    ('client_id', 'fsgsdfgefdsafds2332232'),
    ('client_secret', 'ABCDEFdfgdgd525353455'),
    ]

    response1 = requests.post('https://api.box.com/oauth2/token', data = data)
    data = json.loads(response1.text)
    box_access_token = (data ['access_token' ])
    box_refresh_token = (data ['refresh_token' ])
    auth_value = 'Bearer '+ box_access_token
    #print(auth_value)

    headers = { 'Authorization': auth_value ,'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded','Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',}
