Upload files to my personal box account using box api java sdk

I would like to create a java application that automatically uploads files to my personal box account using the box api java sdk. I can save my credentials and do not want to enter them each time. I will not be uploading files on other users' behalf and hence would prefer not to use oauth. Can someone tell me how to do this?

You will have to authenticate using OAuth2 since all of the Box API calls require an OAuth2 token in the header.

It looks like the Java SDK will auto-refresh your token when it's about to expire, so you will only need to authenticate once (unless your application restarts).
