My Question or Issue

Hello, trying to do an automatic access token refresh, but for some reason when I do, the query returns an error to me: {"error": "invalid_grant", "error_description": "Invalid refresh token"}

My refresh token is 100% correct.

Here is my code to get the access token:

data = { 'grant_type': 'refresh_token', 'refresh_token': refresh_token, 'client_id': client_id, } headers = { 'Authorization': 'Basic ' + base64.urlsafe_b64encode(f'{client_id}:{client_secret}'.encode('ascii')).decode(), 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' } response = requests.post(token_url, data=data, headers=headers) if response.status_code == 200: oauth_token = response.json()['access_token']

I recommend you to look again at "Request a refreshed Access Token".

I did exactly the same thing, the problem remained.

My solution is:

encoded = base64.b64encode((client_id + ":" + client_secret).encode("ascii")).decode("ascii") data = { "grant_type": "client_credentials" } auth_headers = { "Authorization": "Basic " + encoded, "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" }
