Hello, sorry if it is a noob question.
I am developing an app, can my app use pipedream integrations on behalf of the user ?
ie: UserA is logged in my app. Can I use pipedream to send a file to (for example) GoogleDrive account of userA. Same with userB ?

If so, as pipedream operates an OAuth2 flow, when and how does the token refresh operate ? How often should the user reauthenticate ?

From what I have seen, I may need to manage the auth in my app and pass it at runtime ?

Yes, definitely! Take a look at Pipedream Connect and let me know what you think!

Thanks it is exactly what I was looking for.

Nice! Can you tell us a bit more about your use case? What apps are you looking to integrate, and how do you envision using your users’ connected accounts?

What kind of app are you building?
