Description

I try to setup OPC UA agent with OAuth authentication and I get the following error:

2023-03-07 08:51:11 time=2023-03-07T07:51:11.428Z | lvl=ERROR | corr=70688d7e-4ec4-4040-804a-dc0070d1156c | trans=70688d7e-4ec4-4040-804a-dc0070d1156c | op=IoTAgentNGSI.Devices-LD | from=n/a | srv=gtm_jakob | subsrv=/demo | msg=ORION-001: Connection error creating inital entity in the Context Broker: SecurityInformationMissing {

Unfortunately, this error doesn't provide any helpful information. Could you improve it by logging somehow real error here: https://github.com/telefonicaid/iotagent-node-lib/blob/ed74c96d0a6b8fe485ef4e428a25aa2b60091b94/lib/services/northBound/restUtils.js#L217

Reproduce the reported error and verify that the resulting log exposes the relevant underlying security information instead of device type:undefined.
