Hi,

I have created a Client Grant type application in our company Box application.

When trying to connect to it, I am getting following error:

curl -L -X POST "https://<companyboxurl>/oauth2/token"
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
--data-urlencode "client_id=<client_id>"
--data-urlencode "client_secret=<client_secret>"
--data-urlencode "grant_type=client_credentials"
--data-urlencode "box_subject_type=enterprise"
--data-urlencode "box_subject_id=<enterprise_id>"

On trying this, I am getting the below error:

{"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"Grant credentials are invalid"}

Can you please let me know, what I might be missing.

    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 


    {"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"Grant credentials are invalid"}

    I am using App only access.

    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.
