It’s the making of a country music song… "My token departed, it was a heck of a time…

Hi Dave;
Is that possible to request the access token expiration time now upon login or still 90 days default. If possible please let me know how. Thanks.
You can use CLI via particle token or look in the docs for the API
https://docs.particle.io/reference/api/#generate-an-access-token
Your default token for Build will live forever - unless you revoke it.
@ScruffR, I saw that document. I did not see any place I can make a curl request so that my access token won’t expire. I have tried this:
$ curl https://api.particle.io/oauth/token -u particle:particle -d grant_type=password -d username=joe@example.com -d password=SuperSecret
It is returning “expires_in”: 7776000
Thanks.
Have you tried the particle token way?
This should provide some better readable info.
That number is seconds till expiry (7776000sec = 90days)
BTW, that doc states

That would be the one to list all your tokens
https://docs.particle.io/reference/api/#list-access-tokens
And when generating a new one, you’d need to add expires_in=0
curl https://api.particle.io/oauth/token -u particle:particle -d grant_type=password -d username=joe@example.com -d password=SuperSecret -d expires_in=0
Then it will return 0!
