BoxAPIRequestThe type of the returned BoxAPIResponse will be based on the content type returned by the server, allowing it
to be cast to a more specific type. For example, if it's known that the API call will return a JSON response,
then it can be cast to a BoxJSONResponse like so:
BoxJSONResponse response = (BoxJSONResponse) request.send();
If the server returns an error code or if a network error occurs, then the request will be automatically
retried. If the maximum number of retries is reached and an error still occurs, then a BoxAPIException
will be thrown.
See BoxAPIRequest.send() for more information on sending requests.

A ProgressListener is generally only useful when the size of the request is known beforehand. If the size is unknown, then the ProgressListener will be updated for each byte sent, but the total number of bytes will be reported as 0.

BoxAPIRequestBoxAPIRequest.toString(). This method returns
null by default.
A subclass may want override this method if the body can be converted to a String for logging or debugging purposes.
