How to get Firebase ID Token?

I am trying to get ID Token to access files on Firebase storage. I'm using C# xamarin.

user = await Firebase.Auth.FirebaseAuth.Instance.SignInWithEmailAndPasswordAsync(email, password);
rawResult = await user.User.GetIdToken(false);
if (rawResult is GetTokenResult res)
{
    return res.Token;
}

It gives me authentication token that is very long.

But actually I need ID Token that is short.

How do I get ID Token?

Cherry Bu - GetIdTokenAsync(false) is no longer useable (deprecated). Which Nugets and versions are you using please?

I use the following code to get current user ID Token, it also very long.

 try
        {
            var user = await Firebase.Auth.FirebaseAuth.Instance.SignInWithEmailAndPasswordAsync(email, password);
            var uid = user.User.Uid;              
            var token = await user.User.GetIdTokenAsync(false);

            return token.Token;
        }
        catch (FirebaseAuthInvalidUserException e)
        {
            e.PrintStackTrace();
            return string.Empty;
        }

You said that you want to get short ID Token, I guess that you want to get current user Uid

  var uid = user.User.Uid;
