Demonstrates how to refresh an expired Rabobank OAuth2 access token. (No interactive user interaction is required to refresh an access token.) VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

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

' We previously obtained an access token and saved the JSON to a file using this example:
' Get Rabobank OAuth2 Access Token

Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
success = json.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/rabobank.json")
If (success <> True) Then
    Exit Sub
End If
