    The Filevine Identity API exchanges a Personal Access Token (PAT) for a
    short-lived bearer access token that callers attach to subsequent API
    Gateway requests. The Identity service backs Filevine's API v2 OAuth 2.0
    client-credentials style flow and returns the access token, expiration,
    and the set of granted scopes.
