OAuth token expires

Hi all,

We're using next-drupal 1.6.0 in our next 14.2.2 project. Our JSON:API uses oauth for authentication. This is how we initialise our DrupalClient:

new DrupalClient(DRUPAL_BASE_URL, {
     apiPrefix: "/api",
     auth: {
          clientId: DRUPAL_CLIENT_ID,
          clientSecret: DRUPAL_CLIENT_SECRET,
          url: `/oauth/token`,
     },
});

Now, unfortunately when using the endpoints on runtime, we get expired tokens after a while, causing our application to crash. We proceeded by using SSG for most parts of website and that works like a charm. Of course it's a requirement for some features to be able to fetch resources on the go, has anyone had any problems with this?

Are there any reported issues on token refreshing not working? Is this desired behavior?

I've also experienced this expiration token issue, causing drupal to return "Unauthorized" access for various resource calls. It think it might be related to the Next js 14 caching system, however I haven't seem able to pinpoint the problem and fix it.

I've also encountered this issue with next-drupal 2.0.0. Any workarounds?

I think this is the same issue as: #788
