Hello Retool Community,
I am currently facing a challenge while integrating an application that uses OAuth2.0 authentication with Retool. (Moloni)
My process involves making two requests to access the API:
1 - The first request is to obtain an authorization_code
(URL: https://api.moloni.pt/v1/authorize/?response_type=code&client_id=[your_developer_id]&redirect_uri=[your_callback_url]
).
2 - The second request uses this url to acquire a refreshToken
and an accessToken
for making API calls (URL: https://api.moloni.pt/v1/grant/?grant_type=authorization_code&client_id=[your_developer_id]&redirect_uri=[your_callback_url]&client_secret=[your_client_secret_code]&code=[your_authorization_code]
).
However, the accessToken
expires every hour, necessitating another request every 55 minutes to refresh it (URL: https://api.moloni.pt/v1/grant/?grant_type=refresh_token&client_id=[your_developer_id]&client_secret=[your_client_secret_code]&refresh_token=[your_refresh_token_code]
). This is crucial for keeping the application operational.
I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to efficiently manage this process within Retool. Is there a way to automate the token refresh process, or perhaps a more effective method to handle the OAuth2.0 authentication cycle?
Any insights or experiences shared would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
