Access Token Object
Access Token Object
When an Access Token is requested through the OAuth 2.0 or JWT methods, an Access Token resource is returned via the API.
curl -X POST https://api.box.com/oauth2/token \
-H "content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
-d '...'
{
"access_token": "c3FIOG9vSGV4VHo4QzAyg5T1JvNnJoZ3ExaVNyQWw6WjRsanRKZG5lQk9qUE1BVQ",
"expires_in": 3600,
"token_type": "bearer",
"refresh_token": "c3FIOG9vSGV4VHo4QzAyg5T1JvNnJoZ3ExaVNyQWw6WjRsanRKZG5lQk9qUE1BVQ",
"issued_token_type": "urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:access_token"
}
Within this object we can see the actual token string (access_token
), as well
as the refresh token (refresh_token
) that can be used to request a new Access
Token when the current one expires (expires_in
).
