Refresh tokens
02 Apr 2017, 12:58

Hello, according to this page:

https://connect.spotware.com/docs/api-reference/oauth-services-description

when you get the error message about access tokens, you should request new tokens

questions:

1. what is the error message / code that identifies the message as a "need to refresh tokens" message?

would it be one of these?

"UNKNOWN_ERROR"        
"UNSUPPORTED_MESSAGE"  
"INVALID_REQUEST"      
"TIMEOUT_ERROR"        
"ENTITY_NOT_FOUND"     
"CANT_ROUTE_REQUEST"   
"FRAME_TOO_LONG"       
"CONCURRENT_MODIFICATION" 
"MARKET_CLOSED"           
"TRADING_DISABLED"

or something else?

2. does the refresh token itself ever expire?

Save time (timestamp - php function: time() ) when you create token and then add expired time (286666) in seconds and you know wen token will expire (it is 30 days time).

so I can just request a new token @ 29 days and all is good?

Even that day in which the token was generated (Always you can refresh token) old token will work until expire

I'd still like to know how to handle the error message when the token is about to expire. That way I won't have to keep track of when the token was initially generated (which I would prefer not to have to do)

Test it! its my old token:

{"error":{"errorCode":"CH_ACCESS_TOKEN_INVALID","description":"Invalid access token"}}
