Chandrakanth Get refresh token automatically
I have been googling a lot about the fact how to get a refresh token. I have rest integration between salesforce to salesforce and it is working fine. After few hours not using the service I get this message in my debug log :
I totally understand why it is happening ( cause every access has some time limit ). Now i want to request for the refresh token ( I understood by reading multiple articles. sample). In order to request for a refresh token, we should pass some parameters as mentioned below.
The rest integration is setup using Named credentials and Auth providers.
As a work around now, when the session is expired every time, I go to connected app and re-authenticate and my code works just fine.
My goal here is, when i face this Session Expired message, i should be able refresh the token withing the same class where i am invoking the rest service so that other piece of logic works fine.
My connected app looks like this and i am doubting that i should give scope as full +refresh token. Am i correct? please let me know if anyone has suggestions.
