Google Drive Refresh Access Token

See more Google Drive Examples

Demonstrates how to automatically refresh the access token when it expires. Go

    success := false

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

    success = true

    // This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
    // Google Drive scope.

    // The access token (and refresh token) was previously saved to a JSON file with this format:
    // See Get Google Drive OAuth2 Access Token

    // {
    //   "access_token": "ya29.Gls-BsdxTWuenChv ... yzVIrXikkLxu5T6dy4I6GjADFardoz4Lruw",
    //   "expires_in": 3600,
    //   "refresh_token": "1/tMBJ ... 27D-Hk6rpQYBA",
    //   "scope": "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive",
    //   "token_type": "Bearer"
    // }
