1. cordova-plugin-ms-adal 0.6.3-dev
2. Android
3. Real Device - Samsung Galaxy S4

from azure-activedirectory-library-for-cordova.

Pls let me know Android version installed on Samsung device. (Looks like we see related issue on devices with Android OS 4.2 and below)

from azure-activedirectory-library-for-cordova.

It's Android 5.0.1 Lollipop.

from azure-activedirectory-library-for-cordova.

I've tested plugin on Android L and see that refresh token is returned from server and persisted on device (and then used to update token if I call acquireTokenSilentAsync), but it is NOT exposed to JS as authenticationResultToJSON contains strict list of what should be exposed back (as per spec).

Recommendation here is to call authContext.acquireTokenSilentAsync which should return updated token based on refresh token so you don't need to do any extra work. See example on home page for more details.

@Dismissile, feel free to re-open this issue if you still have any problem.

@sgrebnov But what about beeing able to save my session or login forever? For that you have to encrypt the refresh-token, save it to your device and reuse it, if the user openes the App AFTER an hour! For that reason: we definetly need the reftesh token!

Please answer my question asap.

Thank you so much.

@Ahmadre - that makes sense, but could you please elaborate why you want to do this manually (including encryption) instead of using special method provided by api - acquireTokenSilentAsync

from azure-activedirectory-library-for-cordova.

@sgrebnov Because I can't use that method, when the mobile phone is on airplane or battery is empty, or or or. And no I definetly don't want to use Background processes, because it sucks too much battery life and while said: if the smartphone is offline: there's no chance to refresh and the accessToken will expire. Or can I use the silent method instead of an expired accessToken?
