# Google API - Request Bearer Token

Now that you have a JWT assertion, you must send that assertion to Google via an API Request. Successful requests will be responded to with a bearer token.

{% hint style="warning" %}
JWT assertions are time sensitive, so you should always generate a new one and use that new one prior to making a "Google API - Request Bearer Token" call, all in the same workflow.
{% endhint %}

## Directions

1. Add a "Google API - Request Bearer Token" call to your workflow.
2. Use the assertion generated in the "Create Assertion" workflow step. 
3. Store or use the response.
