Basically i want to create a refresh token of the hubstaff api and integrate in the bubble.io so i don’t need to repeat my api authorization steps again after 90days.

You don’t use the custom token correctly. Probably you want to use a client_credentials grant type. Once it will be set, Bubble should refresh automatically if the API follow oAuth guideline.

But according to the documentation, this doesn’t have a client credentials token. Instead, they use a personnal token that is for refresh token. But once you get a new access token, you will also get a new refresh token.

So you need to use none/self-handled auth and manually process to the authentication. Store the refresh token in a DB thing with the expiration and set a backend WF to refresh it when the token expire again.

I don’t think it will work because the header should be Authorization: Basic apikey:apisecret base64 encoded
Also,you may need to add the content type header. The documentation is not well made however. So a little bit hard to know if they are using json, urlform or query string.
