Check against data store

In this scenario, a pre-populated static array of patient names and patient IDs (patients) is used to simulate a real-world data store. The user name included with the Okta request is checked against this array. If the user name in the request matches a value in the patients array, the associated patient ID is stored as a variable, patientID.

Note: Modify this data store to make sure it contains one or more user names that are assigned to your application in your Okta org.
