Getting 500 Internal error in BOX API

Hello ,

could you give us more details please? 🙂 

Which kind of transaction were you doing? Were you uploading a document? A folder? downloading a document?

Have you tried to execute the same URL from a tool like postmann or a curl command?

Regards

Hi  ,thanks for reply.

I tried Create Collaboration API to make specified folder co-editable.
https://developer.box.com/reference#add-a-collaboration

>Have you tried to execute the same URL from a tool like postmann or a curl command?

Yes, I tried curl like this.

curl https://api.box.com/2.0/collaborations \
-H "Authorization: Bearer **************************" \
-d '{"item": { "id": "FOLDER_ID", "type": "folder"}, "accessible_by": { "id": "USER_ID", "type": "user" }, "role": "editor"}' \
-X POST

And Questetra, I requested like this.

URL : https://api.box.com/2.0/collaborations
Header : OAuth2.0
Method : POST
request body(content-type = application/json) : '{"item": { "id": "*************", "type": "folder"}, "accessible_by": { "login": "*************************" }, "role": "editor"}'

Hello ,

I have tried it with restlet (similar to postmann) with this body:

{"item": { "id": "${"FOLDER_ID"}", "type": "folder"}, "accessible_by": {"id": "${"USER_ID"}", "type": "user"}, "role": "Previewer"}

And it worked fine for me.

Could you share the message as you are sending it?

The error may come for a message that it is not correct or... maybe something related to some configuration at folder level where invites are not allowed.

Regards,
