    Hi @Kourtney.

    Is this affecting either:

    `client_id=fgs8kfh71vaazeig5xljynv38lerw5ne`

    or

    `'client_id=g2kcz37610kbrrmko3vimror8btmuzb3`

    ?

    Thanks,
    John

    Hi @Kourtney

    I am wondering if this issue still occurs? My client id is `ov1k33vnmurq7uae7azyq0c4ctxczvvv` and app access is `App Access only`. I tried to access it at 11:59:50 AM NZST (GMT+13). Could you please have a look?

    Many thanks,
    Kevin

    I too have the same issue:
    Seems like you have a "magical" backend fix

    Hi Kourtney,

    I'm sure being the point person for this issue isn't what you intended many months ago. That being said :)

    Detail error: Grant credentials are invalid

    Client id: bzst0okcd5ccvrfqpkb9p2qvcfh5otc3

    Access level: enterprise access

    I'm integrating with a partner and oauth is failing.

    Hi, I am getting this issue {"error":"invalid_client","error_description":"The client credentials are invalid"}, after passing the correct credentials

    Could you please take a look? My client ID is s0nzkvxf3u2h08a0f0rry9j8q7h5bdx1. I don't remember which app type I chose when I set it up, but I think that it was a Custom app with OAuth 2.0

    I have a paid account and not getting a reply for over a month is unacceptable.

    Hi Kourtney,

    Happy New Year!

    Seems like I have the same issue.

    ClientId: g6pnmu4us74v9sk7b3ttl5v07yodyzf6

    Also, how do I select both app + enterprise access level?

    This just happened to me as well. Is there a fix that customers can do themselves?

     

    Answer to my problem: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4407192479379/comments/4407333428243

     

    TLDR; i was trying to use my own userID with app only which causes error. I needed to either use a service account OR an app user (which I did not have permission to add). The documentation should be edited to reflect "user=" does not just mean YOUR user id, but specifically a service account or app user id (if you selected App access only).
