Answer 1

When you call getSession(...) - to get tokens - and if the cached tokens have expired, the SDK will automatically refresh tokens (as long as the refresh token has not expired). If the refresh token too has expired, then getAuthenticationDetails(...) is invoked because now the user credentials (username, password, etc) are required to get new set of tokens. It should not matter how you get the user object, i.e. through getCurrentUser() or getUser(...) methods, as long as there are valid cached tokens or if the tokens can be refreshed, you will get valid tokens with getSession(...).

Retry with the latest SDK (ver 2.3.1).
