I'm getting data through REST API for flow meters I need to show it on the insights hub through MindConnect Lib. But MindConnect Library has an expiration date and it needs to be renewed manually. Is it possible for node-red to regenerate the onboarding key .

If you were to explain what the manual renewal process is, then I feel sure that someone can help.

I have instances in NR that require expiring tokens to be renewed, these are all done within NR once it becomes aware of an expired Token (Onboarding Key??).

_Also this is in the wrong Category. This one is for people developing Nodes to use with NR, not for flows._
