Google Drive API Authentication - google-drive-api

Question

I'd like to make an application that could access MY own Google Drive anytime, create files there, share them and so on.
According to https://developers.google.com/drive/service-accounts "Use regular Google accounts as application-owned accounts" the only think I need is to get access_token and refresh_token once, store them in my application and using refresh_token I can refresh my access_token (somehow).
I can get access_token using request something like
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file&redirect_uri=http://localhost;response_type=token&client_id=
After approve this application request in user dialog I will be redirected to my localhost and I will get access_token that expires in 3600 seconds.
The questions are:
1. How to get a refresh_token?
2. How to refresh access_token using refresh_token?
I don't want to use Google's API client library because it's terrible (.NET).

Answer 1

Ok I got it.
The answer can be found here: https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2WebServer#offline
First You have to make an Auth request
<form method="POST" action="https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth">
<input type="hidden" name="scope" value="[YOUR SCOPE]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="client_id" value="[YOUR CLIENT ID]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="response_type" value="code"/>
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_uri" value="[YOUR RETURN URL]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="access_type" value="offline"/>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
Then you will get a 'code' to your return_url
Then you need to exchange the code to access_token and refresh_token
<form method="POST" action="https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token">
<input type="text" name="code" value="[CODE YOU GOT IN PREV STEP]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="client_id" value="[YOUR CLIENT ID]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="client_secret" value="YOUR CLIENT SECRET"/>
<input type="hidden" name="grant_type" value="authorization_code"/>
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_uri" value="YOUR REDIRECT URL"/>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
As a result of this you will bet response like:
{
"access_token" : "[HERE YOU ACCESS TOKEN]",
"token_type" : "Bearer",
"expires_in" : 3600,
"id_token" : "eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImRiMjBlNWMwZGU1YWI0MGRjNTU5ODBkM2EzYmZlNDdlOGM2NGM5YjAifQ.eyJpc3MiOiJhY2NvdW50cy5nb29nbGUuY29tIiwiY2lkIjoiMjQ2ODg5NjU3NDg2LmFwcHMuZ29vZ2xldXNlcmNvbnRlbnQuY29tIiwiYXVkIjoiMjQ2ODg5NjU3NDg2LmFwcHMuZ29vZ2xldXNlcmNvbnRlbnQuY29tIiwidG9rZW5faGFzaCI6IjRURGtlQ0MzVWRPZHoyd2k1N2RnaUEiLCJpZCI6IjExNTI0MDk1NDM0Njg1NTU4NjE2MSIsImlhdCI6MTM1MzQwNDQ3MCwiZXhwIjoxMzUzNDA4MzcwfQ.Va98sh9LvMEIWxpRMFkcuFqtDAUfJLN5M__oJyjvmIxQR9q2NUIoocyjqbNyXc7as_ePQYiUjajx0SCumtR4Zhv-exeJfrKA_uMmJTe7jWhK6K2R3JQ2-aIZNnehpEuhYZBXgLhzYz1mlFrLqQTdV6LjDhRPDH-ol4UKWXfbAVE",
"refresh_token" : "[HERE YOUR REFRESH TOKEN]"
}
Now you can store these tokens in your application and use for unlimited time refreshing the access_token every 3600 secs
<form method="POST" action="https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token">
<input type="text" name="refresh_token" value="[YOUR REFRESH TOKEN]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="client_id" value="[YOUR CLIENT ID]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="client_secret" value="[YOUR CLIENT SECRET]"/>
<input type="hidden" name="grant_type" value="refresh_token"/>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
And each time you make this request you will get a new access_token
{
"access_token" : "[NEW ACCESS TOKEN]",
"token_type" : "Bearer",
"expires_in" : 3600,
"id_token" : "eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImRiMjBlNWMwZGU1YWI0MGRjNTU5ODBkM2EzYmZlNDdlOGM2NGM5YjAifQ.eyJpc3MiOiJhY2NvdW50cy5nb29nbGUuY29tIiwiYXVkIjoiMjQ2ODg5NjU3NDg2LmFwcHMuZ29vZ2xldXNlcmNvbnRlbnQuY29tIiwidG9rZW5faGFzaCI6ImpyYk5oNkRHZFN4Y0w5MUI5Q1hab2ciLCJpZCI6IjExNTI0MDk1NDM0Njg1NTU4NjE2MSIsImNpZCI6IjI0Njg4OTY1NzQ4Ni5hcHBzLmdvb2dsZXVzZXJjb250ZW50LmNvbSIsImlhdCI6MTM1MzQwNTU5OSwiZXhwIjoxMzUzNDA5NDk5fQ.mGN3EYOX75gPubr3TqWIOBkfq-o3JBXMXx4MbxEBGMSuPdJi7VTqZa4isyR-st-J5_wTtA-j8tVQYnDeZDxj5KpJ14FFQPKTtv_VI5kvuT55KyOmGu4yidciYoffJMISisr8NqiksbemaiYX900sRv6PmoTA6Nf6VtHgj3BZjWo"
