# JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication Prosody plugin

This plugin implements a **Prosody authentication provider** that verifies a client connection based on a JWT
described in [RFC7519]. It allows use of an external form of authentication with _lib-jitsi-meet_.
Once your user authenticates you need to generate the JWT as described in the RFC and pass it to your client app.
Once it connects with a valid token, it is considered authenticated by the jitsi-meet system.

During configuration, you can choose between two JWT validation methods:

* Shared Secret Validation or
* Public Key Validation 

In both cases you will need to provide the _application ID_ that identifies the client.

For the **Shared Secret Validation** an _application secret_ is shared by both the server (Prosody) and the JWT
generation. Take a look at an example structure in [Example Structure > Shared Secret Validation](#shared-secret-validation).
Like described in the RFC, the _shared secret_ is used to compute a HMAC hash value which allows authentication of the 
generated token. There are many existing libraries which can be used to implement token generation. More info can be 
found here: [http://jwt.io/#libraries-io]
