POST /oauth2/access_token
Create or refresh an access token to make requests on behalf of a user. This endpoint is used to obtain an access_token and refresh_token for the first time, and to refresh the access_token when it expires.
This endpoint is part of OAuth 2.0 implementation. You need to configure OAuth App to obtain client_id and client_secret. Read more about OAuth 2.0 implementation.
Make sure you're sending the header Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
Create Access Token
As a result of the OAuth 2.0 user authentication process, you should get a code that can be exchanged for an access_token. Use this endpoint to do this exchange, and to refresh the token later.

expires_inis based in seconds. Currently, a token expires in 31535999 seconds = 1 year.
Refresh Access Token
Eventually, access_token expires and accessing an API method returns 401 unauthorized. Your application needs to refresh the OAuth2 token with the stored refresh_token returned when initially creating an access token.
Once refreshed, calls on behalf of the originally authorized user can resume immediately. Use the newly returned access_token for all future API requests.
