MercadoLibre Refresh OAuth2 Access Token

See more MercadoLibre Examples

Demonstrates how to refresh a MercadoLibre OAuth2 access token. The refresh does not require user interaction via a web browser. If an access token expires (typically with a 401 response code), a new access token can be automatically obtained by using the code in this example. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

# 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 MercadoLibre OAuth2 Access Token

$jsonToken = chilkat::CkJsonObject->new();
$success = $jsonToken->LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/mercadolibre.json");
if ($success != 1) {
    print "Failed to load mercadolibre.json" . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# The access token JSON looks like this:

# {
#   "access_token": "APP_USR-8133606632685744-060115-93e1fd8b5e767c51c238df347bd0b288-577628017",
#   "token_type": "bearer",
#   "expires_in": 21600,
#   "scope": "offline_access read write",
#   "user_id": 577625107,
#   "refresh_token": "TG-5ad522a286f1200006ac4ed1-577625007"
# }

$oauth2 = chilkat::CkOAuth2->new();

$oauth2->put_TokenEndpoint("https://api.mercadolibre.com/oauth/token");

# Replace these with actual values.
$oauth2->put_ClientId("MY_MERCADOLIBRE_APP_ID");
$oauth2->put_ClientSecret("MY_MERCADOLIBRE_APP_SECRET");

# Get the "refresh_token"
$oauth2->put_RefreshToken($jsonToken->stringOf("refresh_token"));

# Send the HTTP POST to refresh the access token..
$success = $oauth2->RefreshAccessToken();
if ($success != 1) {
    print $oauth2->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print "New access token: " . $oauth2->accessToken() . "\r\n";
print "New refresh token: " . $oauth2->refreshToken() . "\r\n";

# Update the JSON with the new tokens.
$jsonToken->UpdateString("access_token",$oauth2->accessToken());
$jsonToken->UpdateString("refresh_token",$oauth2->refreshToken());

# Save the new JSON access token response to a file.
$sbJson = chilkat::CkStringBuilder->new();
