I have to send a request to a rest using HttpUrlConnection but recently the provider added client credentials auth flow.

I have all I need and it tried to generate the token thru postman and then set a bearer on the request but the token expires after 2 days. The project uses Java 6 EE and i can't change the version because it will be decomisioned in about a year.

How can i make my java code generate the token?

    You can send the request with java, extract the token and set it in your other request. When the token expires, repeat the process.
