When you are trying to get a refresh token and not seeing it, you should double check the following items:

  • you are passing a value of offline_access whenever a scope parameter is present.
  • you have configured the application to generate refresh tokens
    • if you are using OAuth, in the UI, it is in the OAuth tab; the field is Generate Refresh Tokens
    • if you are using the Login API, it is in the Security tab under Login API Settings; the field is Generate Refresh Tokens.
  • you are passing the client_id to the refresh grant request. This is required unless you are passing the Authorization header (which has the client_id in it).
  • the user is registered to the application for which you are issuing a refresh token.
