Clarification on access token expiration

General

Okay. So, I wasn’t exactly sure about the required params either, so I started digging into the spark-cli source code to figure it out. I found this:

https://github.com/spark/spark-cli/blob/master/js/lib/ApiClient.js#L133

Which told me all I needed to construct a curl request to illustrate the endpoint in action:

curl -X POST https://api.spark.io/oauth/token \ 
  -d 'username=<YOUR_PASSWORD> \ 
  -d 'password=<YOUR_PASSWORD>' \ 
  -d 'grant_type=password' \
  -d 'client_id=<WHATEVER>' \
  -d 'client_secret=<WHATEVER>'

the client_id and client_secret can be whatever you want.

Hope that helps. Happy Hacking.
