You could store the refresh token, and get the new bearer token whenever the last one runs out. Alternatively, if the user is signed in to Onshape, and already has granted your app permissions, asking them to go through the OAuth workflow is actually transparent to them. When needing OAuth, you would just redirect their browser to the OAuth url, and if you have it setup correctly, the browser can walk through the whole process without ever notifying the user. This is better than storing the refresh token because if your system ever leaked the refresh token, that is a bad security breach, but the access token isn't as bad because of the shorter timeframe.
Hope that helps!
