Salesforce OAuth2 Access Token

Demonstrates how to get a Salesforce OAuth2 access token from a desktop application or script. Go

    success := false

    //  To further clarify, see OAuth 2.0 Authorization Flow

    oauth2 := chilkat.NewOAuth2()

    //  This should be the port in the localhost callback URL for your connected app.

    //  Replace this with your actual client ID (Consumer Key)
    oauth2.SetClientId("CLIENT_ID")

    //  We don't have to include the client secret.
    //  See the screenshot of our Connected App below..

    //  This is for Require Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE)
    //  See OAuth2 PKCE Explained
    oauth2.SetCodeChallenge(true)

    //  To force the OAuth consent screen to reappear (even if previously granted), use:

    //  4: Access Denied – OAuth2 flow completed, the background thread exited, and the error response is in AccessTokenResponse.
