Remove minimum 8-hour expiration requirement for OAuth2 tokens in Event Forwarding
Description -
In Adobe Experience Platform's Event Forwarding, there is a requirement that OAuth2 tokens must have a minimum expiration time of 8 hours. However, the system we use internally for authentication only allows tokens with a maximum expiration time of 1 hour. This creates a compatibility issue, as we are unable to use our tokens with Event Forwarding due to this restriction.
Why is this feature important to you -
This limitation prevents us from integrating our internal authentication system with Adobe Event Forwarding, which restricts our ability to automate and scale our processes. Removing this requirement would enable us to fully utilize Event Forwarding in our workflows.
How would you like the feature to work -
We would like Adobe Experience Platform Event Forwarding to support OAuth2 tokens with expiration times shorter than 8 hours. Ideally, there should be no minimum expiration requirement, or at least support for tokens with a 1 hour expiration, which is standard for many authentication systems.
Current Behaviour -
Currently, Event Forwarding enforces a minimum token expiration time of 8 hours for OAuth2 tokens. Tokens with shorter validity periods, such as those generated by our internal system (maximum 1 hour), are not accepted by the platform.
