Access token refresh never works in v3

I have seen people complain about the issue where using the refresh token to get a new access token after a while of not using the previous access token doesn't work.

 

Say I complete the oauth flow and then gets an access token. After 24 hours of not using the access token, it stops working and returns 401 status error which is expected.

 

However, using the refresh token to get a new access token doesn't work.

 

Any plans to fix this issue?

 

Do a search for "access token" on this forum and see similar issue reported by other devs.
