Implementing Dynamic Authorization in Client Requests from a Layer

Hi folks. I'm in a situation where I need to use a

Client

Client

from a

Layer

Layer

. This client should handle the authorization for every request; the authorization is returned by an HTTP call and has a dynamic

ttl

ttl

returned in the response and needs to be used as a

Bearer

Bearer

token in future requests.

I have two ideas on how to implement this:
- Every time the client is requested, execute a

Request

Request

and set the

Cache

Cache

ttl

ttl

based on the response. Using

@effect/platform

@effect/platform

set the header. Using

@effect/platform/HttpClient

@effect/platform/HttpClient

set the header in the request and reuse the http client
- Create a combinator and the token as a dependency with a

SynchronizedRef

SynchronizedRef

and when the response is a 400, retry, get a new token and update the ref to reuse the token in other request.

How would you implement such service?
