Hi Makers,  
I use a “basic” connection because my application does not manage OAuth. I use the following code:

> {  
> “url”: “[https://XXXXXXXXXXX.learnybox.com/api/v2/oauth/token/](https://XXXXXXXXXXX.learnybox.com/api/v2/oauth/token/)”,  
> headers: {  
> “x-api-key”: “{{parameters.apiKey}}”,  
> “Accept-Charset”: “UTF-8”,  
> “Content-Type”: “application/x-www-form-urlencoded”  
> },  
> “body”: {  
> “grant\_type”: “access\_token”  
> },  
> “type”: “urlencoded”,  
> “method”: “POST”,  
> “response”: {  
> “data”: {  
> “expires”: “{{body.data.expires\_in}}”,  
> “accessToken”: “{{body.data.access\_token}}”,  
> “refreshToken”: “{{body.data.refresh\_token}}”  
> }  
> }  
> }

In modules I use connection variables.  
Example :

> “Authorization”: "Bearer {{connection.accessToken}}

I would like to know if it is possible to update a connection variable in a module?

Thanks for your help
