Abstract
A client application requesting to access a resource may be issued an access token and a refresh token. Instead of revoking the client application access to a resource by revoking the refresh token, allowing the access token to expire, and forcing a user associated with the client application to re-login, authentication for the client application to access the resource may be obtained from the user. The authentication may be obtained from the user while the client application, without notification of the concurrent authentication, may continue attempts to access the resource, for example, via an invalid access token. Once authentication is obtained, the client application may be provided access to the resource, for example, via a valid access token.
