Procedure ChilkatExample()

    ; 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
