How to pass Access token for outbound call in flow action?

[Suresh93]

Hi Community,

We have created a custom flow action with a Rest step for an outbound call. We are using OAuth 2.0 for the authentication so, just wanted to know when making a outbound call, how an access token is passed?

Is it automatically done via Connection and Credential alias that is mapped to the Rest step? OR

Do we have to do any additional configuration for the same?

Kind Regards

It is automatically done via connection credential aliases

While testing I observed that the new access token was automatically fetched w/o having refresh token. 

Note: When I was referring third party application documentation, I got to know that when using OAuth grant-type as Client Credentials it only returns access token.
