Using n8n, I’m attempting to automate the daily refresh of AWS Cognito OAuth tokens. My workflow fails to update tokens without manual triggering. How can I resolve this issue?
hey, im had similar probs. try double-checking your refresh token cuncfg and schdule trigger in n8n, sometimes the token updates only when forced. it might be an timing issue or misconfig in the credentials. good luck!
In my experience, the issue with token refreshes often stems from untimely schedule configurations rather than a flaw with the tokens themselves. I ran into a similar hurdle and resolved it by closely examining the execution triggers and ensuring that the token refresh method was aligned exactly with the AWS Cognito requirements. Double-checking the endpoint settings along with making sure there are no redundant flows in the automation was key. Sometimes a small timing offset or misconfiguration in the OAuth setup can hinder the automatic token update process.
Based on my experience with AWS Cognito and n8n integrations, automatic token refresh issues sometimes result from overlooked timing mismatches between trigger intervals and token lifecycle durations. In my own workflow, I discovered that using a dedicated node to perform a heartbeat check after the token refresh call helped catch failures immediately, allowing adjustments to be made in near real time. Ensuring that error-handling logs were properly configured also revealed subtle misalignments in the schedule. Consistent monitoring of the token’s state through logging was key to preventing unexpected authorization lapses.
hey, im facing a similar hiccup. after messing with it, i found that checking your token scopes and device flow on the aws side fixed it for me. might be an update sync issue in n8n, try revalidating your creds. good luck!
