The good news, is that we are given a refresh token that allows us to either refresh our current access token, or get a new access token (I don't know which). This will happen automatically if the client library is set to "offline" access. Or, we can write a script to send Google the refresh token and get back a rejuvenated setup. > > Does duplicity have a way to help/enable this refreshing of access token? > > I tried publishing my "app", but, given my situation (private use), Google recommended to remain as testing. not currently using the backend, but rewrote the manpage section https://duplicity.us/stable/duplicity.1.html#a-note-on-gdrive-backend some time ago. afair the ways described there create permanent API keys. please correct me if that changed.. sunny regards ede/duply.net _______________________________________________ Duplicity-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/duplicity-talk
