After the _token_ expires, you’ll need to request a new _token using_ the _refresh token_ . Then, you need to _use_ the freshly retrieved _token_ for the next _API_ requests.

If you wait till after “token expires” your API call will give you an error. You have to refresh your token before it expires.  
How do you request a new token? Can you please share your code snippet?
