Hi

I have an app configured for a limited custom app, where a service account is enabled along with a primary token generated. I have authorized the app I made API call to create a folder and then delete it, creation went fine however for deletion of the folder i get 403 response from the api with the error as "access_denied_insufficient_permissions".

Could you please guide me to the correct documentation where I could resolve this error or make appropriate changes in my configuration.

Thanks.

    Hi Suresh!

    Limited access apps were made primarily to be used with Box View. 

    It sounds like you might be attempting to use this app type for a script? Can you provide me more information on your use case? 

    As far as why you can't delete the folder that was created, it may have been created under a different user than the service account. Can you provide the folder id that was created? 

    Thanks, 

    Alex, Box Developer Advocate
