    In the FusionAuth UI, the Login report displays logins over a specified time period.

    Does using an OAuth refresh grant or refreshing an access token via the /api/jwt/refresh API count as a login in this report? While a refresh isn’t a traditional login, one could argue that obtaining a new access token qualifies as a login event.

      Yes, exchanging a refresh token for a new access token (JWT) does count as a login event in the Login report.

      Events That Count as a "Login":

      1. A login is completed using any Login API (e.g., normal login, one-time login, passwordless login, Identity Provider login, or Connector-based login).
      2. A user is created with a password (whether through self-service registration or the Registration API).
      3. A refresh token is exchanged for a new JWT.
      4. A user successfully completes a 2FA login.
