Hello, I created an App to help generate an API Key for use in some automation I need to complete. It has been in “Pending Enablement” for a while and I want to ask for support to get this approved. Can someone please help with getting this approved?

Box API Approval
Best answer by Jey Bueno Box
👋 Hi
To get your custom application approved and move it from the “Pending Enablement” status, you need to have a Box Administrator enable it within your enterprise’s Admin Console.
-
Request enablement from the Developer Console
If you haven’t already done so directly through the interface, you can submit an enablement request:
- Open your Developer Console.
- Go to My Integrations and click on the application you want to enable.
- Navigate to the Enablement tab (for user authentication applications like OAuth 2.0) or the Authorization tab (for server authentication applications like JWT or Client Credentials).
- Click Review and Submit to send the request directly to your Box Administrator. Your administrator will receive an email notification and see the request in their dashboard.
- What your Box Administrator needs to do
Since you are part of Box Corporate, a Box Administrator must perform the following steps to enable your app:- Log into the Admin Console.
- Navigate to Apps (or Platform / Integrations) > Custom Apps (or Platform Apps Manager tab).
- Locate your application under the list of pending apps.
- Click on your application to view its details (such as scopes and Client ID/API Key).
- Click Enable (or Authorize) to approve the application. Once enabled, the status will change to “Enabled” or “Authorized,” and you will receive an email notification of the decision.
