I might have use for your package very soon (days to weeks)...

How long does the secret last? I saw on the link in the readme that they only last for 5 hours...? That might make it a pain for working with (always having to generate a secret, ...)

Thanks!

Hi Alan,

I'm so sorry that we're only getting back to you now. Hopefully, you've been able to use our R package in the meantime :).

The Client ID and secret can be generated from the "User Settings" page, and they won't expire unless you choose to regenerate them from the same page. The OAuth Access Token has a 5-hour expiration period and will be requested automatically when you run CastorData$new.

Best regards, Martijn (Product Owner, Castor CDMS)
