Following the tutorial here:

 

https://developer.box.com/docs/authenticate-with-oauth-2

 

Simple enough, Box returns the code to my redirect location, except the following line (obviously) fails:

 

  this.BoxAuthenicatedSession = await   
  this._boxClient.Auth.AuthenticateAsync(code);

 

this._boxClient has not been instantiated anywhere in the tutorial, hence it's null, hence it crashes with Object reference not set .... error.

 

Please tell me I am missing something obvious here.

  Anyone having the same issue can find the answer here (on StackOverflow - of course):

  Finding the Box SDK documentation incredibly lacking in general.
