Automate Secure Token Management for Seamless API Integrations

This n8n workflow provides a robust solution for managing API access tokens, crucial for maintaining secure and continuous integration processes. It leverages n8n's workflowStaticData to store and track access tokens and their expiration timestamps. Upon execution, the workflow first initializes these static data points if they don't exist. It then checks if the current access token is still valid. If the token has expired or is nearing expiration (defined by a 1-minute grace period in this example), the workflow automatically fetches a new access token from your specified API endpoint. This new token, along with its refresh timestamp, is then saved back into the workflow's static data, ready for subsequent executions. This approach prevents service interruptions due to expired credentials and enhances the overall security posture of your automated workflows.
