Rusty, the value for Authorization is in the HTTP header, so you don't need to call HTTP::collect in order to extract and persist on that value. Here is a modified rule that I think will do the trick.

set rpc_id [HTTP::header value "Authorization"]
persist uie $rpc_id
log local0. "WE RECORDED ${rpc_id} AS THE PERSIST VARIABLE"
}
FYI, HTTP::username & HTTP::password will decode and extact the credentials for you.
