Hi,

When I requesting the tokens: ADToken, SAToken and CustomerToken the responses are:

{"token_type":"Bearer","expires_in":"3599","expires_on":"1445352158","not_before":"1445348258","resource":"https://graph.windows.net","access_token":"eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsIng1dCI6Ik1uQ19WWmNBVGZNNXBPWWlKSE1iYTlnb0VLWSIsImtpZCI6Ik1uQ19WWmNBVGZNNXBPWWlKSE1iYTlnb0VLWSJ9.eyJhdWQiOiJodHRwczovL2dyYXBoLndpbmRvd3MubmV0IiwiaXNzIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9zdHMud2luZG93cy5uZXQvZjE0MDRhNTUtN2Q5NS00N2M0LTg2NDMtMTVjOTkzMDNhNzhkLyIsImlhdCI6MTQ0NTM0ODI1OCwibmJmIjoxNDQ1MzQ4MjU4LCJleHAiOjE0NDUzNTIxNTgsInZlciI6IjEuMCIsInRpZCI6ImYxNDA0YTU1LTdkOTUtNDdjNC04NjQzLTE1Yzk5MzAzYTc4ZCIsImlkcCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vc3RzLndpbmRvd3MubmV0L2YxNDA0YTU1LTdkOTUtNDdjNC04NjQzLTE1Yzk5MzAzYTc4ZC8iLCJhcHBpZCI6IjI5MDE1ZTY1LWVjYjItNDAyZS04Y2UxLWM3Y2U0ZmU4ZDdhMSIsImFwcGlkYWNyIjoiMSJ9.Zb_xwywhoJO5d9d1BRRANM_nNk_OTApIbrKb57NNOMrLVCLwLcArqiOVnGOirololcU1zGsm_yFhth4-7gWXFjWBqD_IiuusGijY7p-qN9vdtZLo96YMykHsy_wbBdmvdjtWN2twQsFliEyKVEdHF6x7e-xI8GYc4OP4EfNprByODzKBeEfimmPeQh6aQCQqTzMQP186mrFI7FROVJ3v8qy9FmJaef47fXKeDA2q0DrInwB671dZXQrtcW2i4bloLmHbIpI-WGNwIqDo3CPxgimp70ph5jno31qL8_6Tr9p5NvyASsY1r4BVMIXT483TNRiPtV49BNL9BpZMQZWI4g"}

Hi Denis,

The "expires_on" and "not_before" properties suggest that, the token will get expired after exact 1445352158 seconds since 1970/01/01.

You can use the tool below to convert it into a readable time format:
