Option D is just plain wrong. Refresh tokens don't notify the app that a new access token is needed - they're used to actually get that new token!

I'm with Stefany on this one. Refresh tokens are all about getting a new access token, not extending the current one.

Option B sounds about right. Refresh tokens are used to request a new access token when the old one is no longer valid.

Haha, option C is a bit of a joke. Resetting an application to its default config? That's not what refresh tokens are for!

I agree with Brianne. Refresh tokens are used to extend the lifetime of an access token, not to reset the application or get a new access token.
