I'm using Xamarin.Auth to authenticate the user and have access to the Google Calendar API. I'm able to get an access token and do whatever I need. The problem is the access_token I receive expires after one hour. I looked for examples and information about this in several posts but I'm still not able to ask for new tokens. Here is the code I'm using in my Xamarin.Droid Project:
public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsApplicationActivity
{
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate(bundle);
global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(this, bundle);
LoadApplication(new App());
#region [GoogleAuthentication]
if (App.auth == null)
{
App.auth = new GoogleAuthenticator(App.WebApplicationClientID,
new Uri("https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me"),
CalendarService.Scope.Calendar);
}
// We don't want to have to login every time, so we'll use the Xamarin.Auth AccountStore
AccountStore store = AccountStore.Create(this);
Account savedAccount = store.FindAccountsForService("google").FirstOrDefault();
if (savedAccount != null)
{
App.auth.Account = savedAccount;
}
else
{
App.auth.Completed += (sender, args) =>
{
if (args.IsAuthenticated)
{
// Save the account for the future
store.Save(args.Account, "google");
}
};
Intent loginIntent = App.auth.GetUI(this);
StartActivity(loginIntent);
}
#endregion [GoogleAuthentication]
}
The GoogleAuthenticator class implements OAuth2Authenticator as seen below:
public class GoogleAuthenticator
: OAuth2Authenticator
{
public GoogleAuthenticator(string clientId, Uri callbackUri, params string[] scopes)
: base(
clientId,
(scopes ?? Enumerable.Empty()).Aggregate(string.Empty, (o, s) => o + " " + s),
new Uri("https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth"),
callbackUri,
null)
{
Completed += (sender, args) =>
{
Account = args.Account;
};
}
public Account Account
{
get;
set;
}
public void ApplyAuthenticationToRequest(HttpWebRequest request)
{
if (Account == null)
throw new InvalidOperationException("You must be authenticated to make requests");
string token = Account.Properties["access_token"];
string type = Account.Properties["token_type"];
request.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.Authorization] = String.Format("{0} {1}", type, token);
}
}
I tried changing the authorizationUrl adding the parameters approval_prompt=force and access_type=offline but it didn't work too.
How can I get the refresh_token using Xamarin.Auth?
Thanks.
