python 3.x - Running the same code for 2 files but the one which runs on weekly shows token expired error.( Token has been expired or revoked.)

Question

I am trying to upload a file to google drive using pydrive. i have two scripts to run,one on a daily basis and the other one weekly. the point is i am using the same client.json and credential file (since i am uploading it to the same drive from same account) to run these scripts and the daily scripts runs without any issue but the one i run weekly shows this error. the script which run weekly has the same code in it and also it ran for one week after successfully authenticating it manually and for the second week it started showing the error token expired or revoked. my code in both files are like this

gauth = GoogleAuth()
gauth.LoadCredentialsFile("drive_credentials")
try:
    if gauth.credentials is None:
    # Authenticate if not present
        gauth.GetFlow()
        gauth.flow.params.update({'access_type': 'offline'})
        gauth.flow.params.update({'approval_prompt': 'force'})
        gauth.LocalWebserverAuth()
    elif gauth.access_token_expired:
    # Refresh  if expired
        gauth.Refresh()
    else:
    # Initialize the saved creds
        gauth.Authorize()
except Exception as e:
    logger.exception("Exception Occured",exc_info=True)
# Save the credentials to a file
gauth.SaveCredentialsFile("drive_credentials")
drive=GoogleDrive(gauth)

i have a specific path for the drive_credentials file to get the credential file for all the scripts. The error it shows is like this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/appuser/uber_scripts/uber_env/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pydrive/auth.py", line 475, in Refresh
    self.credentials.refresh(self.http)

    self._refresh(http)

    raise HttpAccessTokenRefreshError(error_msg, status=resp.status)
oauth2client.client.HttpAccessTokenRefreshError: invalid_grant: Token has been expired or revoked.
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "upload_file.py", line 102, in <module>
    gauth.Refresh()
  File "/home/appuser/uber_scripts/uber_env/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pydrive/auth.py", line 477, in Refresh
    raise RefreshError('Access token refresh failed: %s' % error)
pydrive.auth.RefreshError: Access token refresh failed: invalid_grant: Token has been expired or revoked.

Like others, I'm trying to get the Google refresh token to work in order to run scheduled tasks Your answers are much appreciated Thanks in advance
