How to get an Access Token from a Refresh token from within B4A

Hi Brad Henderson,
To be honest I'm not familiar with the environment you're using. On the first look though, it uses OkHttp as underlying library. So you can take a look here for a simplistic example - example how OkHttp works. It may be easier for you to encode everything in the body (i.e. pass in the body text: "grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token=<REFRESH_TOKEN>&client_id=<APP_KEY>&client_secret=<APP_SECRET>"; replace all "<...>" tags appropriately). Find what matches to desired OkHttp calls exactly in your environment (something, I believe you may do). 😉
Hope this helps.
PS: Just to avoid confusion: The example supposes JSON content, but in your case the content type is different, so instead of "application/json" (as is in the example) you have to set "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" as content type (MediaType in the example).
