JWT Auth Credentials

JWT authentication credentials allow your SubverseAI agents to authenticate with services using JSON Web Tokens for secure API access.

​

Overview

JWT credentials provide access to:

• Modern API services using JWT authentication
• Microservices architecture
• Stateless authentication systems
• Token-based APIs
• Secure web services

Steps to Create JWT Auth Credentials

​

1. Identify JWT Requirements

Check your API documentation to confirm it uses JWT authentication:

• Look for “JWT” or “JSON Web Token” authentication
• Check for token endpoint and format requirements
• Verify any additional claims needed

​

2. Get JWT Credentials

From your service provider, collect:

• JWT Token: Your JSON Web Token
• Header Name: Usually “Authorization” (default)
• Token Prefix: Usually “Bearer” (default)

​

3. Add to SubverseAI

1. Go to Credentials in your SubverseAI dashboard
2. Click Create New Credential
3. Select JWT Auth from the credential types
4. Enter a name for your credential
5. Fill in the required fields:
   • JWT Token: Your JSON Web Token
   • Header Name: Header name for the token (default: “Authorization”)
   • Token Prefix: Token prefix (default: “Bearer”)
6. Click Save Credential

​

Required Fields

• Name: A descriptive name for your credential
• JWT Token: Your JSON Web Token
• Header Name: Header name for the token (default: “Authorization”)
• Token Prefix: Token prefix (default: “Bearer”)

​

Usage Tips

• Check token expiration and refresh as needed
• Use HTTPS endpoints to protect tokens in transit
• Store JWT tokens securely and rotate regularly
• Verify token claims match service requirements

​

Troubleshooting

Invalid Token: Verify JWT token is valid and not expired Malformed Token: Check token format and encoding 401 Unauthorized: Ensure token has required claims and permissions Header Missing: Verify header name and prefix are correct

​

Next Steps

After creating your JWT credentials:

• Set up JWT-based API integrations
• Configure token refresh workflows
• Build secure microservice connections
• Monitor token expiration and renewal
• Implement token validation checks
