We’ve got a Node.js service handling webhook ingestion and it’s currently tied to a single OAuth client ID. Time to rotate the secret without dropping any queued events. Docs are pretty light on the exact SDK handshake for a zero-downtime swap. I’ve been testing a double-secret pattern. Register a second client, pull a fresh access token, then swap the platformClient.login() call. Might be overcomplicating it, but the single-client setup is a bottleneck.
Here’s the rough flow I’m running:
const { platformClient } = require('genesys-cloud-auth');
await platformClient.login({
grant_type: 'client_credentials',
client_id: process.env.NEW_CLIENT_ID,
client_secret: process.env.NEW_SECRET
});
Problem pops up around the 5-minute window where both clients are active. Old tokens expire. SDK’s internal refresh hook throws a 401 Unauthorized. Webhook processor stalls. The /oauth/token endpoint rejects the refresh if the signing key doesn’t match the original grant.
How do you handle the exact sequence? We’re looking at registering the second client, waiting for cache propagation, then flipping the env vars in our PM2 cluster. SDK seems to cache the initial grant too aggressively. Anyone got a working snippet for forcing a clean token swap without restarting the whole worker pool? The 401 errors keep flooding our error logs when the old secret gets deactivated. Just need the exact SDK call sequence.
