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

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

*  This example assumes we previously obtained an OAuth2 access token for Schwab.

loJsonToken = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
lnSuccess = loJsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/schwab-access-token.json")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? "Failed to load schwab-access-token.json"
    RELEASE loJsonToken
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  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"
*  }

loOauth2 = CreateObject('Chilkat.OAuth2')

loOauth2.TokenEndpoint = "https://api.schwabapi.com/v1/oauth/token"

*  Replace these with actual values.
loOauth2.ClientId = "APP_KEY"
loOauth2.ClientSecret = "APP_SECRET"
loOauth2.UseBasicAuth = 1

*  Get the "refresh_token"
loOauth2.RefreshToken = loJsonToken.StringOf("refresh_token")

*  Send the HTTP POST to refresh the access token..
lnSuccess = loOauth2.RefreshAccessToken()
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loOauth2.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loJsonToken
    RELEASE loOauth2
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  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.
loJsonToken.UpdateString("access_token",loOauth2.AccessToken)

*  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.
