Hello,

 

I have a requirement where i have to write a script to export some pdfs from some source to box, i was using box-python-sdk to acheive this, but the developer token i generate is active only for 60 min. 

Since this is a script, i cannot set a redirect URI to retrieve a refreshed token. 

 

I need to know a way to access box by refreshing this token without using a redirect URI.

Can this be done? If there is any other way then please suggest it.

 

Thanks in advance,

Kiran

  You probably want to use JWT authentication: https://developer.box.com/docs/app-auth. You can generate a new access token by sending Box a new JWT.
