Hi
I have created a Python script that uses the Rest API to pull data from a selection of BAQs.
All works fine on the day it is created but the next day it stops as the Bearer token has changed. Do I need to get a new Bearer token each day?
See if this link helps:

I don’t think that link will help but I think @josecgomez has some code on here somewhere for the epicor token stuff.
(if needed)
As for the bearer tokens, yes they expire, I don’t know the details.
Now that I think about it, the link to my thread may help at least in concept, for storing a bearer token, and just refresh it as needed.
I dunno.
Ya that was the part I remembered from yours. I thought @josecgomez had a post about requesting one through REST, but I couldn’t find it

Bearer tokens expire usually with a couple of hours if you want to see what the expiration time is paste it into
jwt.io and it will tell you
This is normal security and you must provide a renewal mechanism. If your app is not going to be constantly up and active you’ll have to either schedule the renewal or simply get a new one right before you make the call if the last one expired.

Thanks everyone. I found the Ice.LIB.TokenServiceSvc which lets me check and request a new token.
