Hello, Zapier experts!
I am creating a zap that uses the FreshBooks integration.
I need to duplicate an Estimate, but there is no such functionality provided out of the box by Zapier.
I would like to invoke FreshBooks API directly using custom step - either run Java Script or Webhooks.
Is it possible to use the access token, that Zapier already has, in the custom step?
Thanks!

Q: Is it possible to use the access token, that Zapier already has, in the custom step?
A: No, you’ll need to get and add an access token to your API request.

Thank you,
I am reading the FreshBooks documentation on how to get that token:
https://www.freshbooks.com/api/authentication
If I understand correctly, I need to generate Refresh Token (that lives forever) and use that in my zap. Is this correct?
