OAuth 2.0 authorization expires after a few hours

How To
1

I’m using the HTTP module to call some API using OAuth 2.0 authorization.
I set up an Auth0 application for make and created the appropriate connection in make.
Everything works fine for a few hours, then my HTTP module fails with 401 unauthorized.
In order to fix it I need to go and manually click the ‘Reauthorize’ button on the connection, this makes the automation useless…
What can I do so the token will be renewed automatically when it expires?

You’ll need to run a scenario to renew the token. Or check with the provider of the oAuth and see how they recommend to renew a token.

You may be able to adjust token expiration time on the non-make end of things.
