Hmm. Thanks for the detailed report, though unfortunately I can't reproduce. My hunch is that authentication is failing for you. Please try:

Should I download this again and try? |

Yes, please update to the latest version. The problem may be that you are not running an 'interactive session' (you're using Rscript), and |

Brendan, I thought this might fix it – and I have tried this a few ways, still says it needs a listener? require(boxr) BOX_CLIENT_ID = “po1imyvnod3i…." regards, From: Brendan Rocks <notifications@github.commailto:notifications@github.com> Yes, please update to the latest version. The problem may be that you are not running an 'interactive session' (you're using Rscript), and box_auth assumes that you are. The appropriate setting in this case would be box_auth(interactive = FALSE).

Let me know if this works:

Brendan, I ran the script from Rstudio, and it ran fine. However, when I run it again from command line with box_auth(interactive=FALSE) I still get the same error:
[cid:AD58BD95-021C-4D28-B966-5CEDFEE13650] From: Brendan Rocks <notifications@github.commailto:notifications@github.com> Let me know if this works:
Rationale: Under the hood, OAuth2.0 (the standard which box.com uses to authenticate your account) requires that you have something called a 'token', which is a file sent from box.com stored on your machine. To get this, you need to submit your client_id and client_secret and then sign in via a web-browser. A token file is then stored (by default) at ~/.boxr-oauth. If you're not in an interactive session (e.g. using Rscript) then R/httpuv cannot launch a browser, which means you cannot generate a token. However, by running an interactive session first, the token should be generated on your machine. This means that a non-interactive session can find and 'refresh' the token, without the necessity for the browser validation part. Let me know if this solves your problem.

That's not the same error. The text appears to show you authenticating successfully, and the output of R code running, no..? |

I have reduced the code now to just two lines to show the issue (it runs fine from interactive window). require(boxr) -----> See vignette('boxr') for a short guide on connecting your box.com account to R.
