This example demonstrates how to validate an Okta access token using Chilkat's JWT class. PowerBuilder

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example begins with two JSON files:
// 
// 1. The access token obtained from Okta as shown in one fo these examples:  
//    Get Okta Token using Resource Owner Password Flow
// 
// 2. The Okta web keys obtained by this example:  Get Okta Web Keys
// 
// 

// Load the access token to be verified.
// It contains JSON that looks like this:
// {
//   "access_token": "eyJraWQiOiJhb ... O_eVu-kBp6g",
//   "token_type": "Bearer",
//   "expires_in": 3600,
//   "scope": "openid",
//   "id_token": "eyJraWQi ... FrL9WOuwbQtUg"
// }
// This example verifies the access_token.  (The id_token is verified in this example:  Verify Okta ID Token
