## API Version: default


# Generate/Refresh Token API



A single endpoint that issues access and refresh tokens, with behaviour set by `action`. Use `code` to exchange a merchant's authorization code for the first token pair, and `refresh_token` to obtain a new pair - no merchant action required.

action - `generate_token` exchanges the authorization code from the merchant's consent for an access token and refresh token. Call this from your backend immediately after Juspay redirects to your redirect_uri with the code.

action - `refresh_token` obtains a new access token and refresh token pair using a valid refresh token, without requiring any merchant action. Call this before the access token's expiry to keep the merchant's authorization active.## Endpoints:
