authenticate to booksy's public api and manage its short-lived oauth2 access and refresh tokens

Steps
request sandbox and production api credentials from booksy — booksy's public api docs (docs.booksy.com) describe separate rsa key pairs for each environment, so don't reuse one environment's keys in the other
review the oauth2 authorization flow (including openid id token support) documented at docs.booksy.com before writing client code, since booksy's public api is a rest api organized around resource-oriented urls with json responses
exchange your credentials for a short-lived access token and a refresh token through the documented token endpoint
implement proactive token refresh logic: booksy's published docs describe access tokens on the order of minutes and refresh tokens on the order of days, so refresh well before either expires rather than waiting for a 401
use the resulting bearer token to call booksy's rest endpoints for bookings, appointment status updates, service details, and client profiles
Known gotchas
many third-party "booksy api" summaries and directory listings describe booksy as having no public developer program — that's outdated; docs.booksy.com is booksy's own official public api documentation as of this session, so verify current details there rather than in older secondary sources
access and refresh token lifetimes are short by rest-api standards, so integrations built with long-lived-token assumptions will fail without active refresh handling
sandbox and production credentials are environment-specific rsa key pairs, not a single key usable everywhere
