    It looks like you’re encountering a 500 Internal Server Error when attempting to get a token from Box’s API. This typically indicates a server-side issue, but you should first verify that all your credentials (client ID, client secret, and enterprise ID) are correct and that you haven’t hit any API rate limits. Additionally, ensure that your API call is properly formatted and that unnecessary headers, like Cookie, are removed. If the problem persists, check Box's status page for any ongoing service issues or reach out to their support team for further assistance. YourTexasBenefits com
