Connecting to Agora with Tokens — Android

What's this blog post about?

This tutorial explains how to fetch an Agora token from a web service running an Agora token server in your Android application with Java. The Agora platform uses tokens to authenticate users, and this is crucial for security within video chat applications as remote working and virtual events become more prevalent. To fetch a token, you need to have a token server set up either locally or elsewhere. Once the token server is established, you can fetch a token into your application by following specific steps in Android using Java. The tutorial also covers how to stay connected by updating tokens before they expire and renewing them without needing to disconnect from the channel.
