Automate 'Get ID Token" on the Authorization Profile for OATH2 authentication.
Oath2 authentication already has the ability to automate retrieval of an access token if needed on a step that uses oath2 authentication. We need something similar for the ID Token. The two are retrieved at the same time but the authorization automation only auto populates/refreshes the access token. To obtain a valid ID Token, you must go to the authorization profile, select 'get ID Token" followed by selecting 'get OpenID Token' on the subsequent popup. At this point your authorization profile has a valid idtoken to use.
Since we have to have a valid id token, there is a manual step to an otherwise automated set of project test suites... the tester must manually go and fetch an id token at the beginning of running the test suites.
