I have a script where I am trying to import the box windows sdk (a bunch of dot net assemblies) to use for managing a box environment (for those who want to replicate, download nuget command line tool and run “nuget install box.v2”). However, I have run into a snag. I have gotten as far as constructing the Json Web token and configuring the client to make api calls, but it seems that all of the methods which are used to perform administrative tasks are asynchronous functions. Below is the code I run:
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Desktop\nuget\System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt.5.1.4\lib\net45\System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt.dll") [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Desktop\nuget\BouncyCastle.1.8.1\lib\BouncyCastle.Crypto.dll") [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Desktop\nuget\Box.V2.3.2.0\lib\net45\Box.V2.dll") [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Desktop\nuget\Microsoft.IdentityModel.Logging.1.1.4\lib\net45\Microsoft.IdentityModel.Logging.dll") [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Desktop\nuget\Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens.5.1.4\lib\net45\Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens.dll") [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Desktop\nuget\Newtonsoft.Json.10.0.3\lib\net45\Newtonsoft.Json.dll") #[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("C:\Users\whiggs\Documents\GitHub\boxcli\BoxCLI\bin\Debug\netcoreapp2.0\box.dll") #$testob = New-Object Box.V2.config.BoxConfig.Createfromjsonfile (Get-content "C:\Users\whiggs\OneDrive - Acuity Brands, Inc\tryagain.json") $content = Get-content "C:\Users\whiggs\OneDrive - Acuity Brands, Inc\tryagain.json" | ConvertFrom-Json $ob = New-Object Box.V2.config.BoxConfig (($content.boxAppSettings).clientID, ($content.boxAppSettings).clientSecret, $content.enterpriseID, (($content.boxAppSettings).appAuth).privateKey, (($content.boxAppSettings).appAuth).passphrase, (($content.boxAppSettings).appAuth).publicKeyID) $ob2 = New-Object Box.V2.JWTAuth.BoxJWTAuth ($ob) $admintok = $ob2.AdminToken $serviceaccount = $ob2.AdminClient($admintok) $users = $serviceaccount.UsersManager.GetEnterpriseUsersAsync() $usersWhich results in the below exception:

I would really appreciate some help. I don’t know if the code is failing because the function is asynchronous and I need to do something special to get it to complete successfully, but I am following the example code posted in the github repository for the box windows sdk here but can’t seem to successfully execute any of the methods. Please help
