I have created a custom identity provider using OpenID Connect 1.0. Everything is working great. Now I need to grab the access token and send it to a REST API which requires a barer token (JWT) to validate each call. I am using it in a script so I need the token data for the header. I am sure it is there, I can see it when I do a test login. I am using 8.3 if that matters. I just can’t find it. Thanks

I found the access\_token in the session.props.auth.idpAttributes. My idp returns the token and user info, so that’s good.. I can also refresh the token by calling the /token. Question is if I refresh via a script, will it update the framework so the session will actually refresh too?
