btw this gist is a bit wrong, it not give your token, the token you got from BASIC is the oauth2 client authentification basic token, the real token is from the same request, but in the response, in the JSON key
access_token
, epicgames does not provide a fix token according to oauth2. So if you want to get a token at anytime, see the form body on the request, where you can maybe see device_auth, refresh_token in the body.
