Clerk: Getting the OAuth access and/or refresh token of user

The title should say it all. Does Clerk's user interface even include the two?

Access the auth state inside your React components.

Edit: I now know that in order to get the access token I need to make an API call to the Clerk API. Is the refresh token not stored in Clerk's database and I need to retrieve it from Google?

const {
  sessionId,
  getToken,
} = useAuth();

const {
  sessionId,
  getToken,
} = useAuth();

Thanks for your reply. Isn't this the session token? I don't think it's what I'm looking for

i think clerk abstracts that away from you

if you are after the OAuth provider token there is a backend api call that retrieved it. (e.g twitch oauth token to interact with their api)
