             Summary: Shindig should provide api so client side can force the 
st to be refreshed 
                 Key: SHINDIG-1863
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1863
             Project: Shindig
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java, Javascript 
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
            Reporter: Erik BI


We have uncovered several use cases request that:
1. Container's abilty to require a ST for all gadgets and cause it to refresh 
2. Container determines that all STs are invalid (e.g. the user logged out, SSO 
session times out, etc) ... should be able to force an immediate refresh to 
reflect the new log in state. where the container wants to force the use of STs 
on all requests. 

However, there is no API in the container can call to force a refresh of all 
STs due to a change it knows about (change of logged in user) and if the gadget 
does not request the "auth-refresh" indirectly, shindig will not refresh its 
token.

related java code:

    Boolean needsTokenRefresh =
        isFieldIncluded(fields, "needstokenrefresh") ?
            gadget.getAllFeatures().contains("auth-refresh") : null;
