Windows Azure Active Directory - expiration of refreshtoken
.net, azure-active-directory
Solution
Yes, the Refresh Token does expire.. I am not sure, but I believe you can set the TTL or expiration of the token in the setup of the WAAD properties on azure. I have to check, but I am not where I can access Azure at the moment.
Problem
I am experimenting with Windows Azure Active Directory. In a client (desktop) application the user enter his credentials and authenticate to access a REST service. I'm using latest version of Active Directory Authentication Library. In my scenario I want that the user insert his credentials one time, so I store the refresh Token and use it to renew the access Token by calling AcquireTokenByRefreshToken method of AuthenticationContext object. My question is : Will the refreshtoken expire? Can I use the refreshtoken days or weeks after I obtained it?
