Description

This is now hardcoded for 15 minutes, should be configurable. Note that we chose to hide the existing config flag in the auth module, since it is v5-specific. If we decide to re-use it for the IAM APIs, we need to un-hide it.

Research direction

Start in the auth module by locating the hardcoded 15-minute access-token lifetime and the existing hidden configuration flag. Trace where access tokens are issued and determine the configuration path; done means the lifetime is configurable while the v5-specific flag remains hidden unless IAM APIs need to reuse it.
