// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Note: The code for setting up the Chilkat REST object and making the initial connection can be done once.
// Once connected, the REST object may be re-used for many REST API calls.
// (It's a good idea to put the connection setup code in a separate function/subroutine.)

// This example loads the JSON access token file
