I'm trying to write a Mule flow that uses the Box connector. I'm able to go to http://localhost:8081/auth
and authorize successfully. But as soon as I create a file in my box account I get "Failed to Invoke getEvents. Message payload is of type: String." and in the Root Exception Trace I get: "Invalid Key Type"
Mule Flow (based on: https://github.com/mulesoft/box-connector/blob/master/demo/src/main/app/box-connector-demo.xml)

********************************************************************************
This looks like a bug to me: box:get-events is supposed to use property boxAccessTokenId as authentication token, there is a warning that the property is not set due to a null value, and when I look at the source code for the BoxConnector class where the value is coming from, there is a reference to a private variable accessTokenIdentifier which is never set. I reported this to the Mule dev address.
