(Visual FoxPro) Refresh a Dynamics CRM OAuth2 Access Token

Demonstrates how to refresh an expiring Dynamics CRM access token using the refresh token. endpoint.

(If a REST API call fails with a 401 unauthorized error, an application can auto-recover by refreshing the access token, and then re-send the request using the new token.)

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

*  We previously obtained an access token and saved the JSON to a file using this example:
*  Get Dynamics CRM OAuth2 Access Token

*  This example will examine the JSON and expiration date, and if near expiration will
*  refresh the access token.

loJson = CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject')
lnSuccess = loJson.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/dynamicsCrm.json")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    RELEASE loJson
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  The contents of the JSON look like this:
*  {
*    "token_type": "Bearer",
*    "scope": "user_impersonation",
*    "expires_in": "3599",
*    "ext_expires_in": "0",
*    "expires_on": "1524783438",
*    "not_before": "1524779538",
*    "resource": "https://mydomain.api.crm.dynamics.com",
*    "access_token": "...",
*    "refresh_token": "...",
*    "id_token": "..."
*  }

*  The "expires_on" value is a Unix time.
loDtExpire = CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.CkDateTime')
loDtExpire.SetFromUnixTime(0,loJson.IntOf("expires_on"))

*  If this date/time expires within 10 minutes of the current system time, refresh the token.

*  OK, we need to refresh the access token by sending a POST...
*

*  If an "expires_on" member does not exist, then add the JSON member by
*  getting the current system date/time and adding the "expires_in" seconds.
*  This way we'll know when the token expires.
