MercadoLibre Refresh OAuth2 Access Token

See more MercadoLibre Examples

Demonstrates how to refresh a MercadoLibre OAuth2 access token. The refresh does not require user interaction via a web browser. If an access token expires (typically with a 401 response code), a new access token can be automatically obtained by using the code in this example. Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // It is assumed we previously obtained an OAuth2 access token.
    // This example loads the JSON access token file 
    // saved by this example: Get MercadoLibre OAuth2 Access Token

    CkJsonObject jsonToken = new CkJsonObject();
    success = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/mercadolibre.json");
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println("Failed to load mercadolibre.json");
        return;
        }

    // The access token JSON looks like this:

    // {
    //   "access_token": "APP_USR-8133606632685744-060115-93e1fd8b5e767c51c238df347bd0b288-577628017",
