Web based API access to data held within SIMS ID.
The identity token validation endpoint can be used to validate identity tokens. This is useful for clients that don’t have access to the appropriate JWT or cryptography libraries (e.g. JavaScript).
You can either GET or POST to the validation endpoint. Due to query string size restrictions, POST is recommended.
POST /connect/identitytokenvalidation
token=<token>&
client_id=<expected_client_id>
GET /connect/identitytokenvalidation?token=<token>&client_id=<expected_client_id>
A successful response will return a status code of 200 and the associated claims for the token. An unsuccessful response will return a 400 with an error message.
