See more OAuth2 Examples

Demonstrates how to refresh a Wish OAuth2 access token.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.85.

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.

' See Get Wish OAuth2 Access Token 
' for sample code showing how to obtain a Wish access token for desktop apps.

' This example assumes we previously obtained an OAuth2 access token for Wish.

Dim jsonToken As New Chilkat.JsonObject
success = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/wish.json")
If (success <> True) Then
    Debug.WriteLine("Failed to load wish.json")
    Exit Sub
End If


' The access token JSON looks something like this:
