# token.expiring

> A connected platform token is approaching expiry and cannot be auto-refreshed. The user must reconnect.

Fires before an unrefreshable platform token expires — at 7 days for LinkedIn (no refresh-token mechanism), and on equivalent windows for any other platform that doesn't support automatic refresh.

For platforms with refresh tokens (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Threads), refresh runs silently on schedule — you won't see this event in the normal flow, only if a refresh attempt itself fails.

## Payload

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "type": "token.expiring",
  "data": {
    "accountId": "...",
    "profileId": "...",
    "platform": "linkedin",
    "platformAccountId": "...",
    "displayName": "...",
    "expiresAt": "2026-05-11T12:00:00Z",
    "daysUntilExpiry": 7
  }
}
```

## Use it for

* Email or in-app notification: "Your LinkedIn account needs to reconnect by Tuesday."
* Trigger a re-auth flow before publishing breaks.
