24-hour re-authentication is killing automated AI workflows in Adobe Analytics. Let admins set the token lifetime
The problem
We use the Adobe Analytics MCP connector to run AI-assisted analyses, including scheduled ones like weekly KPI summaries and daily data quality checks. The connector currently requires re-authentication every 24 hours, and this can’t be changed. As soon as the token expires and nobody is around to log in again, every scheduled task fails.
Impact
- Vacations, sick leave, weekends: If the account owner is away, all automated processes stop until they’re back.
- Silent failures: Gaps are often noticed days later, after stakeholders have already missed their reports.
- No unattended automation: As long as a human has to log in daily, the connector can’t reliably power recurring workflows.
Proposed solution
Let org admins configure the re-authentication interval, e.g. 24 hours (default), 7, 30 or 90 days.
Alternatively:
- Support refresh tokens for automatic renewal while the user stays active and authorized, or
- Allow authentication via a technical account / OAuth Server-to-Server credentials.
Security
24 hours can stay the default. Admins would opt in to longer intervals based on their own security policies, just like they already do for other API integrations.
