Sorry, I'm probably just not seeing this in the docs... but when using a social login (for example Google), how can I get the user's name (or other data) as provided by Google?

I got the token, but this is looking like something too complex for the time I have available to address it: → https://connect2id.com/learn/openid-connect#claims It would be really cool if there were some kind of hook to just be able to grab the OpenID user claims. I have not read deeply enough, but are you sure that this is done with the access token? Originally, I thought it would just be a JWT that I could decode, but it seems to be much more complex than that... 😢
