i just created another new topic ([Longevity of OAuth UserManaged code](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/longevity-of-oauth-usermanaged-code/17014)) about the longevity of the **authorization code** and in reading this thread it seems it is only good for one use in getting an access/refresh token? do we need to request user for authorization again via the marketplace application Installation URL? thank you…
