TypeError Configuration does not include boxAppSettings object

Hi.

I am trying to make box application by node.js.

But I can't do anything.

First, I tried to run this code.

const fs = require("fs");
const path = require("path");
const box = require("box-node-sdk");

//read json
let configFile = fs.readFileSync("config.json");
console.log(JSON.parse(configFile));

// connect to BOX
let session = box.getPreconfiguredInstance(configFile);
let client = session.getAppAuthClient("enterprise");

client.files.get('0')

Then, respond following message.

C:\Mydir\node_modules\box-node-sdk\lib\box-node-sdk.js:137                
throw new TypeError('Configuration does not include boxAppSettings object.');
                ^

TypeError: Configuration does not include boxAppSettings object.

    at startup (internal/bootstrap/node.js:285:19)
    at bootstrapNodeJSCore (internal/bootstrap/node.js:739:3)

This error rises any API calls, likes these.

client.enterprise.getUsers();
client.folders.getItems('0');

Please teach me how can I solve this problem.

Thank you.

{ "boxAppSettings": { "clientID": "abc...123", "clientSecret": "def...234", "appAuth": { "publicKeyID": "abcd1234", "privateKey": "-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----\n....\n-----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----\n", "passphrase": "ghi...345" } }, "enterpriseID": "1234567" }

This error is telling you that the "boxAppSettings" key is missing from your configuration file. Compare it to this example for typo's or missing things:

It is awkward but I just forgot placing 'config.json' current directly.
