Not Authenticate

Integración Box MELGEG

Good afternoon, I have the following problem.
When trying to obtain user information, it gives me the following message:

"Grant credentials are invalid"

I have an application with client credentials (server authentication)

I am using the Java SDK and the line of code I use to get the permission is:

BoxCCGAPIConnection api = BoxCCGAPIConnection.userConnection(CLIENT_ID, SECRET_CLIENT, USER_ID);

 

My CLIENT_ID is 0046s531alxnmszzy4wx2jdtn91s12a0

    Hello, 

    It looks like you set up your app to be App + Enterprise set up... is this correct?

    I believe you need to pass in the enterprise id... not a user id.. can you try and report back? 

    Thanks, 

    Alex, Box Developer Advocate

    Yes, it is like that, but indicating the company ID, we cannot access either

    This is the error

     

     

    thank you very much for your help

    I think I see the issue... there are two cca java methods... and you are still using the user one... below is the enterprise one to try

    BoxCCGAPIConnection api = BoxCCGAPIConnection.applicationServiceAccountConnection(
        "client_id",
        "client_secret",
        "enterprise_id"
    );

    Alex, thank you very much for your answer.

    I had to wait a few days for the app to be authorized in Box to try again. Finally today they have authorized it, the authentication occurs without error, however my new problem is that I cannot read the folders that I have in Box.

    This is an extract of my code:

     

     

    This line occurs without error:

    BoxCCGAPIConnection api = BoxCCGAPIConnection.applicationServiceAccountConnection(ID_CLIENTE, SECRET_CLIENT, ENTERPRISE_ID);

    However when I try to loop through the folders, this line gives me the result that I don't have any BoxItem.Info

    for (BoxItem.Info itemInfo : folder) {

    So, when you use CCA as the authentication type, a service account is automatically created... and that account has its own content - which since its new probably has no content. In order to see your users content, you would want to make an as-user call, which allows the app to impersonate your user account.
