See more WiX Examples

Request a new access token each time you call a WiX API. Use the refresh token together with your secret key, to request refresh tokens JavaScript

// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

//     "client_id": <CLIENT_ID>,
//     "client_secret": <CLIENT_SECRET>,
//     "refresh_token": <REFRESH_TOKEN>

// This example loads the JSON access token file
