Create Application (OIDC Protocol - Service App)
POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/applications
The POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/applications operation adds a new application resource to the specified environment. The SERVICE type is intended for non-interactive applications (applications using client credentials, rather than user credentials, to get tokens) to provide access to third-party custom resources.
In addition to the required name attribute, the request body also specifies a value of "true" for the enabled attribute. If a value is not specified for the enabled attribute, it is set to false by default.
