# Get access token

Use the `getAccessToken` method to retrieve the access token for the user's current auth session. The native Android and iOS SDKs manage the session and refresh it as needed.

This method is available from v8.

## Usage

```dart
try {
  final String accessToken = await Web3AuthFlutter.getAccessToken();
} catch (e) {
  // Thrown when no authenticated session is present.
  log(e.toString());
}

```

## Errors

`getAccessToken` throws when no authenticated session is present. Call it after a successful [connectTo](/embedded-wallets/sdk/flutter/usage/connect-to/), or after [initialize](/embedded-wallets/sdk/flutter/#initialize-web3auth) restores a session.
