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

// In a previous example, we obtained a Microsoft Graph OAuth2 access token.
// This example loads the JSON saved from the previous example and decodes the id_token.

// Our Microsoft Graph OAuth2 token looks like this:

// {
//   "token_type": "Bearer",
//   "scope": "openid profile User.ReadWrite Mail.ReadWrite Mail.Send Files.ReadWrite User.Read Calendars.ReadWrite Group.ReadWrite.All",
//   "expires_in": 3600,
//   "ext_expires_in": 3600,
//   "access_token": "EwCQA8l6...0HhMKYwC",
//   "refresh_token": "MCWulIvzi2yD0S...igEFn51mqcByhZtAJg",
//   "id_token": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1...Q7lRDaR-7A",
//   "expires_on": "1562862714"
// }
