Box Java SDK

2.20.1

Box is deprecating the use of TLSv1 in their API. If using Java 7, make sure to start the Mule application with the following Java option: -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.1. This isn’t required when using Java 8.

In case you have an issue, refer to this Knowledge Base.

Features

  • Box removed support for TLS 1.0 in Java SDK version 2.1.1, so we updated the SDK version to latest (2.20.1).

Box Java SDK

2.1.1

Fixed Issues

  • Failure to test the connection in OAuth Server to Sever configuration - Similar to the issue fixed in Box 3.1.1 but in the context of a mavenized Mule application. The issue was caused by the Bouncy Castle dependencies shaded in version 3.0.0.

Known Issues

None.

3.1.1

June 2, 2017

Compatibility

Software Version

Mule

3.6.0 and later

Java

7

Box API

2.0.0

Box Java SDK

2.1.1

Features

None.

Fixed Issues

  • Failure to test the connection in OAuth Server to Sever configuration - In the previous version, the Test Connection would throw the exception NoSuchAlgorithmException: PBKDF-OpenSSL SecretKeyFactory not available. This was caused by a conflict in the version of the BouncyCastle library used by the connector (1.52) and the one shipped with the Mule (that is, Mule 3.8.0 bundles 1.54). In the current version, the Test Connection works as expected.

  • Improvement of exception messages: in addition to the HTTP status code, error messages also return the complete description of the failure cause.

  • Fields are now validated before sending the request: previously only a HTTP 400 response was returned.

  • New operation Search with Parameters: unlike the search provided by the Box SDK, which still remains as an operation but deprecated, it provides all the parameters supported by the API, except for mdfilters and filters.

Fixed Issues

  • Shaded a bouncycastle dependency: This was done to fix an issue produced on Mule EE 3.8.0.
