      The endpoint set, claims list and scope list are Salesforce Experience Cloud's standard shape,
      served under Cvent's own domain by Cvent's Salesforce org. The issuer is https://support.cvent.com,
      so the document is Cvent's; the vocabulary inside it is the vendor's. Do not read the scope list
      as a Cvent-authored permission taxonomy.
