How to get refresh token with personal access token in laravel passport

Question

Thanks for help I am working on a project with laravel in backend and react js on the front end

I cannot understand how to issue refresh token along with personal access token

Createtoken('token_name')->accesstoken(); Only issues an access token

Answer 1

$user->createToken('Token Name')->accessToken; Creates a Personal Access Tokens that can't be refreshed.

You need to issue an OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow for this. See Laravel`s Documentation about how to issue an access token

1. First you need to create an app_client using the passport:client Artisan command
2. then you need to raise an authorization request
3. approve the request
4. with that you have an authorization code and can request an access token

The /oauth/token endpoint will return a JSON response containing access_token and a refresh_token.
