How to Set Up JWT
Updated 8 months ago
Ideanote supports JWT authentication. Requests made to the Ideanote API need to include a token.
JWT data fields
Ideanote expects the structure of the JWT payload to match the following:
name: full name of the user (optional)
avatarUrl: an URL to the avatar of the user (optional)
sub: user ID in your system
email: email of the user
locale: locale of the user
subdomain: the subdomain of your Ideanote workspace
department: The department the user works in (we think this is found on a user property called "User Site" in the data you generate the JWT from).
country: The country the user works in (we think this is found on a user property called "User Country" in the data you generate the JWT from.
Each of your workspaces are preconfigured with a shared JWT secret that can be provided to you upon request. You will need to sign the JWTs with the secret corresponding to the relevant workspace.
Authorization header
To authenticate API calls, provide the signed JWT using the Authorization header as such:
Authorization: Bearer <JWT>
