Why:

Closes: #35340

What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):

This pull request addresses several issues in the current documentation for manually requesting a JSON Web Token (JWT) from the GitHub OIDC provider. The updates focus on improving clarity, security, and accuracy.

Changes:

  • Replaced incorrect environment variable name with proper reference to ACTIONS_ID_TOKEN_REQUEST_TOKEN.
  • Removed the direct logging of the retrieved JWT to avoid potential exposure in logs.
  • Simplified and clarified the example code by removing redundant node.js step and cleaned up the curl lines.

Check off the following:

  • I have reviewed my changes in staging, available via the View deployment link in this PR's timeline (this link will be available after opening the PR).

    • For content changes, you will also see an automatically generated comment with links directly to pages you've modified. The comment won't appear if your PR only edits files in the data directory.
  • For content changes, I have completed the self-review checklist.
