In certain cases such as client links, you may not have access to the access_token created for the taxpayer. However, all Chart endpoints returning sensitive taxpayer data require an access_token. This endpoint allows you to retrieve the access_token using your Chart client_id and client_secret. Important: This endpoint should be used sparingly and only when absolutely necessary. Please reach out to Chart support if you need to use this endpoint frequently.
