Generate JWTs
You need to generate a JWT for each user. The JWT is used to authenticate the user. Run the following commands, remember to replace the APPLICATION_ID
variable with id of your application and PRIVATE_KEY
with the name of your private key file.
NOTE: To quickly get your application id you can run the Vonage CLI command, vonage apps
, to view a list of your applications.
For Alice:
vonage jwt --app_id=APPLICATION_ID --subject=Alice --key_file=./PRIVATE_KEY --acl='{"paths":{"/*/users/**":{},"/*/conversations/**":{},"/*/sessions/**":{},"/*/devices/**":{},"/*/image/**":{},"/*/media/**":{},"/*/applications/**":{},"/*/push/**":{},"/*/knocking/**":{},"/*/legs/**":{}}}'
And for Bob:
vonage jwt --app_id=APPLICATION_ID --subject=Bob --key_file=./PRIVATE_KEY --acl='{"paths":{"/*/users/**":{},"/*/conversations/**":{},"/*/sessions/**":{},"/*/devices/**":{},"/*/image/**":{},"/*/media/**":{},"/*/applications/**":{},"/*/push/**":{},"/*/knocking/**":{},"/*/legs/**":{}}}'
The above commands set the expiry of the JWT to one day from now, which is the maximum.
Make a note of the JWT you generated for each user:
NOTE: In a production environment, your application should expose an endpoint that generates a JWT for each client request.
