<!-- Answer --> Implementing token generation and verification logic directly within the `PrepareApiClient` function could lead to potential issues, especially for long-running operations. The `PrepareApiClient` function is designed to set up the initial state for API requests, such as preparing tokens for use. If you include token generation and verification logic here, it might not effectively handle token expiration during long data collection processes. For operations that take more than an hour, you should consider implementing a mechanism to refresh tokens dynamically during the operation. This could involve checking the token's expiration time and requesting a new token when necessary, rather than relying solely on the initial setup in `PrepareApiClient`. This approach would help ensure that your API requests remain authenticated throughout the entire data collection process. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To continue talking to [Dosu](https://dosu.dev), mention @dosu.* --- <sup>Help Dosu learn!
