What's the cheapest path to Box API access?

Hi folks!

I'm a software contractor, and I've been tasked with developing a Box webhook for a client. This is spectacularly difficult with the lack of a developer plan, and the "it's returning soon" communications aren't helpful.

I've got a free individual account, but authentication is broken and I can't see any way of authorising a custom app to allow adding a webhook URL anyway.

I don't want to waste my time or money on a paid personal account if I'm going to have the same problems, but the business and enterprise accounts are way beyond my budget.

My plain and simple questions are:

When will developer support return? I'd appreciate a genuine answer so I can set expectations with my clients. Please don't just say "soon".
Until developer support returns, what's my cheapest option for developing and authorising custom apps?

Hello!

Thanks for the post. It should be possible to have your client create a Sandbox account for you to develop in - this would be free for both the client and yourself. It would also allow them to own the environment.

We do not have a set date for developer accounts at this time.
