Summary

Hi!
I followed the steps from https://docs.hoppscotch.io/documentation/features/authorization#oauth-2-0 to set the Collection Properties Authorization part for all requests. I'm not sure if there is any better way so I'm posting here the idea.

While changing frequently environments, the generated token is not changing accordingly. It would be nice to have it environment-aware or have some configuration that tries to regenerate the token whenever Unauthorized is returned for any request (that might be even more helpful in the case of short-lived tokens).

Why should this be worked on?

Whenever I change the environment, I need to go to Collections Properties, hit "Generate Token" button to generate a specific one for the active environment, and save it.
