Refresh Access Token

Access tokens expire after an hour of generation. To generate a new access token, use the refresh token you generated earlier.

Note

You must use your domain-specific Zoho Accounts URL to refresh your access token.

  • For US: https://accounts.zoho.com
  • For AU: https://accounts.zoho.com.au
  • For EU: https://accounts.zoho.eu
  • For IN: https://accounts.zoho.in
  • For CA: https://accounts.zohocloud.ca
  • For SA: https://accounts.zoho.sa

  • Make a POST request with the following URL using query parameters:

    {Accounts_URL}/oauth/v2/token?refresh_token={refresh_token}&client_id={client_id}&client_secret={client_secret}&grant_type=refresh_token

  • If the request is successful, you will receive the following output:

    {
    "access_token": "{new_access_token}",
    "scope":"ZohoFSM.modules.all",
    "api_domain": "https://www.zohoapis.com",
    "token_type": "Bearer",
    "expires_in": 3600,
    }

Note

  • A "User" in an organization can have a maximum of 20 refresh tokens. And each refresh token can have a maximum of 30 active access tokens (non expired).
  • When a user creates a 31st access token, the system deletes the first created access token. Similarly, when the user creates the 21st refresh token, the system deletes the first created refresh token.
