Hi @MonalishaK 

The typical oauth fllow for this is is to first authenticate with client id, client secret, etc, you'll receive 2 types of tokens. One is the access token one is the refresh token. An access token lifespan is often only valid for 30 minutes up to an hour. The Oath script should validate the expiration date of the access token. If the access token is expired, a request is made using the refresh token to get a new access token.

if your refresh token is having longer expiration and that date has not yet reached then you should be able to generate fresh access token using refresh token.

If refresh token is expired then you need to make a fresh call with credentials to 3rd party to get the refresh token.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
