I'm using Okhttp Authenticator for updating my JWT tokens. But there is a problem, that the authenticate() method is called, when I'm getting 401 from backend. But when I'm getting 403 - token expired, the authenticate() method doesn't get called. Is there any good topic about how the authenticator() method works or can we call it manually? And also the main question - does it handle 403 response?
Does okhttp authenticator handle 403 error?

You can add your own interceptor to catch the 403, renew the token and retry.
It's essentially what this interceptor in my project does https://github.com/yschimke/okurl/blob/5163436f8bcb2526e8be7b72d59d99a9db433848/src/main/kotlin/com/baulsupp/okurl/authenticator/RenewingInterceptor.kt
