    Hi

    Normally when you use a custom app (JWT or client credentials grant) and our SDKs, the client you get represents the service account for the app. For you to upload to a specific folder belonging to a user you can either 1) collaborate the service account to the folder https://github.com/box/box-windows-sdk-v2/blob/main/docs/collaborations.md#add-a-collaboration or 2) use the As-User header to make the upload call as the user https://github.com/box/box-windows-sdk-v2/blob/main/docs/authentication.md#as-user
