# Token refresh At initialization of the SDK valid credentials [MoveAuth](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/moveauth.md) is required. The accessToken is only valid for a short period of time. With the refresh token, the MOVE SDK tries to get a new accessToken. This can be done as long as the refreshToken is valid. \ \ As soon as it is not possible anymore to get a new accessToken, the host application will be notified via the *AuthStateUpdateListener* and the [MoveAuthState ](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/moveauthstate.md)changes to *Expired .*When this happens, the host app is responsible to provide new [MoveAuth ](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/models/moveauth.md)credentials and pass it to the SDK at initialization or via [updateAuth](/move-platform/move-sdk-1.x/sdk/api-interface/android-1/android.md#update-authentication)\ \ The MOVE SDK keeps collecting data and trips as long as the SDK remains in state Running. A token expiry will not stop the detection, but is unable to transmit any data. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
