// This example does the following:

// curl -X GET https://yourInstance.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/userinfo \
//      -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

// Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
// Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

// This example assumes the OAuth2 access token was previously fetched 
// and saved to a file.  See Get SalesForce OAuth2 Access Token via Authorization Flow

Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
Dim success As Boolean
success = json.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/_salesforce.json")
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog("Failed to load OAuth2 access token.")
    Return
End If

// Here's an example of the JSON:

// {
//   "access_token": "00D41000....uLZBpT6",
//   "refresh_token": "5Aep....25xdGgkrV",
//   "signature": "cjTbSc5DvcKpaMoRTzuQTJLb1tcMw8LEO01flq4aMD4=",
//   "scope": "refresh_token id",
//   "instance_url": "https://d41000000f8a0eak-dev-ed.my.salesforce.com",
//   "id": "https://login.salesforce.com/id/00D41000000F8A0EAK/005410000....xAAE",
//   "token_type": "Bearer",
//   "issued_at": "1738348388166"
// }

// Adds the "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" header.
http.AuthToken = json.StringOf("access_token")

// We want to build the following URL:  https://<instance_id>.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/userinfo
Dim sbUrl As New Chilkat.StringBuilder

// The expected JSON response is something like this:

// {
//   "sub": "005xxxxxxxxxxxx",
//   "name": "John Doe",
//   "preferred_username": "johndoe@example.com",
//   "email": "johndoe@example.com",
