    Hi , I am not too sure what's going on here but I'm investigating. I just want to check that the access token represents a user with admin privileges, and that the target user ID is a user in your enterprise?

    Got it working. Posting the solution to help others.

     

    I had to enable the 'Read and write all files and folders stored in Box' and 'Manage Users' scopes, then grab a new token pair and retried my script, all is working now.

     thank you so much. I've pushed an update to our reference docs to explicitly call out that you need the `Read and write all files and folders stored in Box` scope to transfer files
