Refreshing short lived access token after expiry
I login into my personal account, create an app in the app console and generate an short-lived access token. After this token has expired, can I use it to generate a new access token programmatically...
No, it is not possible to use a short-lived access token to programmatically generate another access token. If you need long-term access without manual user intervention, you should use the OAuth flow to get a refresh token, which can be used to programmatically retrieve new short-lived access tokens on demand. Please refer to the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation for more information on doing so.
This works the same way for both Business/Enterprise and non-Business/Enterprise accounts.
