I am trying to build an app for scheduling youtube content, here is how the app works=>
my question is: the oauth2 token will expire after a few weeks, what if the user wants me to post the video after 3 months , but he does not want to login to my app. Is there a way I can keep the token alive?
I am just learning so please be humble, This is surely possible because companies like hootsuite, zoho are achieving exactly this ,but how?
You need to get refresh token and use it to obtain a new access token without user interaction. To get refresh token and exchange for a new access token, you need to implement them in your back-end for security reason.
