There is a function provided for getting the current user info in the sdk :

[[BoxSDK sharedSDK].usersManager userInfoWithID:BoxAPIUserIDMe requestBuilder:nil     success:successBlock failure:failureBlock];

I'm the maintainer of the iOS SDK. This is the correct answer. – Ryan Lopopolo Jan 13 '14 at 05:11

NSString *str =  [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://api.box.com/2.0/users/me?access_token=%@",str_access_token];


    NSURLRequest *request = [[NSURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:str]
                                                  cachePolicy:NSURLCacheStorageAllowed
                                              timeoutInterval:20];

    [NSURLConnection sendAsynchronousRequest:request
                                       queue:[[NSOperationQueue alloc] init]
                           completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse *response,
                                               NSData *data,
                                               NSError *error) {

                               if ([data length] >0 && error == nil) {


                                   NSError *myError = nil;

                                   NSMutableDictionary *userdata = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithDictionary:[NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:NSJSONReadingMutableLeaves error:&myError]];

                               } else if ([data length] == 0 && error == nil) {

                                   NSLog(@"Nothing was downloaded.");

                               } else if (error != nil) {

                                   NSLog(@"Error = %@", error);
                               }
                           }];

BoxOAuth2Session *session = (BoxOAuth2Session *) [notification object]; NSLog(@"Access token (%@) expires at %@", session.accessToken, session.accessTokenExpiration); — sunil, Aug 08 '14 at 13:54

this is the api right. I hope that there is a simple way to get using box v2 ios sdk. And idea on that?. Also this requires another http request. – loganathan Dec 05 '13 at 07:41
I think you need to make a new request for user details. – Maulik Dec 05 '13 at 07:47
