Python DefaultAzureCredential get_token set expiration or renew token

I'm using DefaultAzureCredential from azure-identity to connect to Azure with service principal environment variables (AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID).

I can get_token from a specific scope like databricks like this:

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential

dbx_scope = "2ff814a6-3304-4ab8-85cb-cd0e6f879c1d/.default"
token = DefaultAzureCredential().get_token(dbx_scope).token

From my experience get_token will create a token with a Time To Live of 1 or 2 hours.

So if I have a large process using the ressource for more than 2 hours, the token expires and all my spark process is lost.

So is there a way to make the generated token last longer ? I see in the official documentation that get_token has a kwargs, but I find no ressources online on how to use it and what can be used inside it.

I guess there is no option to make this "host" token last longer. So I created a class to handle my PAT following databrick's 2.O API for tokens https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/api/latest/tokens.html

Thankfully PATs are automatically removed once they are expired. So I don't have to handle old PATs.
