Refreshing Access Tokens
Access tokens expire an hour after they are generated. To generate a new access token, use the refresh token you generated earlier.
Note:
You must use your domain-specific Zoho Accounts URL to refresh your access token.
For CN: https://accounts.zoho.com.cn/
Make a POST request with the following URL.
{Accounts_URL}/oauth/v2/token?refresh_token={refresh_token}&client_id={client_id}&client_secret={client_secret}&grant_type=refresh_token
If the request is successful, you will receive the following output:
{
"access_token": "{new_access_token}",
"expires_in": 3600,
"api_domain": "https://www.zohoapis.com/",
"token_type": "Bearer"
}
Notes:
- A user in an organization can have a maximum of 20 refresh tokens and each refresh token can have a maximum of 30 active access tokens (non-expired).
- If a user creates a 31st access token, the system will delete the first access token. Similarly, if the user creates a 21st refresh token, the system will delete the first refresh token.
- You can only generate a maximum of five refresh tokens in a minute.
- We have provided with a sample test OAuth in all the examples, so that you can test any example on your own. You can replace the sample OAuth Token with your actual token to test requests from your Zoho Recruit account
