Is There a Way to Re-Generate OAuth Refresh Token?

[Sadat]

My question is regarding the OAuth flow: Is there a way to request re-generation of the refresh token for a user? (besides reinstalling the app and going through the installation flow again)

Hi @Sadat

To obtain OAuth access and refresh tokens, follow these steps:

1. Make a URL-form encoded POST request to /oauth/v1/token.

   • In the request body, include the following authentication parameters:
     • client_id
     • client_secret
     • The code returned via the redirect URL.

2. Redirect URL and code generation:

   • After a user authorizes your app, the redirect URL will include a code value.
   • Use this code to generate the initial access token and refresh token.

3. Access token lifetime:

   • Access tokens are short-lived.
   • You can verify their lifespan using the expires_in parameter, which provides the lifetime in seconds.

4. Generating new access tokens:

   • To generate a new access token, make another URL-form encoded POST request to /oauth/v1/token.
   • In the request body, specify:
     • grant_type
     • client_id
     • client_secret
     • refresh_token
