zapier magento2.1.11 authentication gets lost


I setup a user role that has (currently) simply all resources. I setup a user that has this role. I authenticate with the user credentials (user and password, no store code) in zapier to create a connected magento2 account.

After some time my zap does not work anymore because the connected account cannot access my magento anymore. I can just hit reconnect in zapier enter the same credentials as above and it works again. But after some time it again does not work.

Looking at the magento documentation this is because custom and admin accounts expire after 1 or 4 hours. Reading the documentation I would need an integration to have unlimited access. But in zapier I cannot enter tokens or anything.

So I really wonder how I would set this up. If it is possible. Or is just zapiers integration borked?

What is strange though is that this behavior began after upgrading to Magento version 2.1.11. Other 2.1.x versions before did not have this problem.

    That's a known bug on our end. In the meantime, you can override this via Configuration > Services > OAuth > Access Token Expiration
