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

# See Get QuickBooks OAuth2 Access Token 
# for sample code showing how to obtain a QuickBooks access token for desktop apps.

# This example assumes we previously obtained an OAuth2 access token for QuickBooks.

jsonToken = chilkat2.JsonObject()
success = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/qb-access-token.json")
if (success != True):
    print("Failed to load qb-access-token.json")

# The access token JSON looks something like this:

# {
#   "expires_in": 3600,
#   "x_refresh_token_expires_in": 8726400,
#   "refresh_token": "L011546037639r ... 3vR2DrbOmg0Sdagw",
#   "access_token": "eyJlbmMiOiJBMTI4Q0 ... oETJEMbeggg",
#   "token_type": "bearer"
# }

# Replace these with actual values.
oauth2.ClientId = "QUICKBOOKS-CLIENT-ID"
oauth2.ClientSecret = "QUICKBOOKS-CLIENT-SECRET"

# Get the "refresh_token"
oauth2.RefreshToken = jsonToken.StringOf("refresh_token")

# Send the HTTP POST to refresh the access token..
success = oauth2.RefreshAccessToken()
if (success != True):
    print(oauth2.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

# The response contains a new access token, but we must keep
# our existing refresh token for when we need to refresh again in the future.

# Save the new JSON access token response to a file.
# The access + refresh tokens contained in this JSON will be needed for the next refresh.
