* 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 Yahoo Mail OAuth2 Access Token

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject')
loJsonToken = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
lnSuccess = loJsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/yahooMail.json")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? "Failed to load googleSheets.json"
    RELEASE loJsonToken
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* The access token JSON looks like this:

* {
*   "access_token": "kCVQdnOdul...LHucA--",
*   "refresh_token": "AIenVWETSo0jklFBVkPS8vVm8E.Dj9ToRG.xDbDYmZ55WIs5t6CZhDkD",
*   "expires_in": 3600,
*   "token_type": "bearer",
*   "xoauth_yahoo_guid": "HGDQCVF6JB4YDOWHITPJFBHCWA"
* }

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.OAuth2')
loOauth2 = CreateObject('Chilkat.OAuth2')

* See Step 5 at https://developer.yahoo.com/oauth2/guide/flows_authcode/
loOauth2.TokenEndpoint = "https://api.login.yahoo.com/oauth2/get_token"

* Replace these with actual values.
loOauth2.ClientId = "CLIENT_ID"
loOauth2.ClientSecret = "CLIENT_SECRET"

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

* Send the HTTP POST to refresh the access token..
lnSuccess = loOauth2.RefreshAccessToken()
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) 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.
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.StringBuilder')
loSbJson = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
loJsonToken.EmitCompact = 0
loJsonToken.EmitSb(loSbJson)
