Id_token missing in RingCentral /token API response

I have created application in RingCentral using developer account and calling the authorize and token API to use OpenID Connect flow.

While calling the /token API, it is returning only access_token but not id_token. My application is failing while trying to fetch id_token from /token API's response. Other OpenId Connect IdP's are working properly. Please find my application details below.

  • Platform_type : Server/Web
  • Authorization Flows : Authorization Code | Refresh Access Token
  • Redirect URI is configured properly.

Please advice?

Thanks & Regards, Vijeesh
