What type of Box App do i need to develop?
Hello,
I am completely new to Box.com and I have been tasked with writing an "app" that, when a file is dropped into a specific directory, reads that file and uploads the contents to a database.....
I have managed to create an Application in my developer account and configure a webhook which successfully calls my endpoint when a file is uploaded. Happy Days!
As this "app" will have no user interaction I am trying to work out the best way to get a non-expiring API key.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks
Trev

When you request an auth token, you actually get back two tokens: an access_token that you use to authenticate API calls, and a refresh_token that you can use to get a new set of tokens.
In addition to processing your events, your endpoint can check for token expiration and request a new token when necessary.
