How can I create a JWT?
Verimatrix can provide sample reference code for generating tokens.
Steps to Create a JWT
1 Choose a JWT Library:
◦ Most programming languages have libraries for creating and verifying JWTs.
◦ Examples: Node.js: jsonwebtoken, Python: PyJWT, Java: jjwt
2 Define the Token's Data:
◦ Decide what claims (data) to include in the payload, such as user ID, roles, or expiration time. Utilize Verimatrix's Token Specification document for mandatory and optional supported claims.
3 Sign the Token:
◦ Use a secret key (for HMAC algorithms) or a private key (for RSA/ECDSA algorithms) to sign the token.
