:::note
GitHub returns a field on `Account` called `refresh_token_expires_in` which is a number. See their [docs](https://docs.github.com/en/developers/apps/building-github-apps/refreshing-user-to-server-access-tokens#response). Remember to add this field to your database schema, in case if you are using an [Adapter](/adapters/overview).
