I'm not sure if I understand what the purpose of Inherit is at the request level if you must manually click the Get Access Token button. Is there not a way to programmatically call the Get Access Token?

Another issue - many rest APIs require different scopes for different requests. All of the details are the same except for the request part. Here are the steps I need to go through in order to make that happen today:

  1. Run the request... get an unauthorized - this sets the scope for the authorization as a variable
  2. Open the collection settings, then the Auth tab, click Get Access Token
  3. Return to the request and run it with the correct authorization token.

I guess when I saw that Inherit is there that it would stitch some of these steps (at least the management of calling to get the access token) for me.
