box.com api without Oauth2

Question

I created box.com application and want to access files and folders under my account using api sdk https://github.com/box/box-windows-sdk-v2. Is it possible to not use OAuth2 for authentication(something like curl https://api.box.com/2.0/folders/FOLDER_ID/items?limit=2&offset=0 \ - H Authorization: client_id=MY_CLIENT_ID client_secret=MY_CLIENT_SECRET) and get access only for my data.

You'll need to go through the oauth process and get a bearer token to use the Box API.
