Restoring sessions

[timgfx]

I'm looking to cache sessions on disk. I've tried simply storing the refreshToken after logging in and then 1) setting it when initializing LoginSession, 2) calling LoginSession:refreshAccessToken(). However, this yields EResult 15 AccessDenied. I've also tried storing cookies and adding them the the session._webClient.cookieJar, but same issue.

Am I doing something wrong or is this not supported?

Edit: Seems like the refresh token should be used to get a new steamLoginSecure cookie instead of getting a new access token. So I suppose all I need to do is store the refresh token, set it on the LoginSession instance, and call getWebCookies

Looks like this process is indeed correct: https://github.com/DoctorMcKay/node-steam-session/issues/11. And refreshing access tokens is just not a thing when using WebClient

This is correct. Access tokens are only useful when using EAuthTokenPlatformType.MobileApp.
