The JWT Profile for Authorization Grants is one of the OAuth 2.0 grant types supported in ReadyAPI. With this grant, a client application sends a JSON Web Token (JWT) assertion to an authorization server to confirm its identity and get an access token. JWT can be issued by an identity provider or generated in ReadyAPI.
To learn how to configure OAuth 2.0 authentication in ReadyAPI, see Enabling OAuth 2.0 Authentication.
