Introduction In typical enterprise scenarios, applications are configured for single sign-on to the enterprise identity provider (IdP) using OpenID Connect or SAML. This enables users to access all the necessary enterprise applications using a single account at the IdP, and enables the enterprise to manage which users can access which applications. When one application wants to access a user's data at another application, it will start an interactive OAuth flow [RFC6749] to obtain an access token for the application on behalf of the user. This OAuth flow enables a direct app-to-app connection between the two apps, and is not visible to the IdP used to log in to each app. This specification enables this kind of "Cross App Access" to be managed by the enterprise IdP, similar to how the IdP manages single sign-on to individual applications. The draft specification Identity Chaining Across Trust Domains [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining] defines how to request a JWT authorization grant from an Authorization Server and exchange it for an Access Token at another Authorization Server in a different trust domain. The specification combines OAuth 2.0 Token Exchange [RFC8693] and JSON Web Token (JWT) Profile for OAuth 2.0 Client Authentication and Authorization Grants [RFC7523]. The draft supports multiple different use cases by leaving many details of the token exchange request and JWT authorization grant unspecified. This specification defines the additional details necessary to support interoperable implementations in enterprise scenarios when two applications are configured for single sign-on to the same enterprise identity provider. In particular, this specification uses identity assertions as the input to the token exchange request. This Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 3] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 way, the same enterprise identity provider that is trusted by applications for single sign-on can be extended to broker access to APIs. 2. Conventions and Definitions The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 2.1. Roles Client The application that wants to obtain an OAuth 2.0 access token on behalf of a signed-in user to an external/3rd party application's API (Resource Server below). In [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining], this is the Client in trust domain A. The application has a direct relationship with the IdP Authorization Server for single sign-on as a Relying Party and another independent OAuth 2.0 client relationship with the Resource Authorization Server in trust domain B. IdP Authorization Server (IdP) A SAML 2.0 Identity Provider or OpenID Connect Provider (OP) [OpenID.Core] that issues identity assertions for single sign-on and cross-domain authorization grants Section 3 for a set of trusted applications in an organization's application ecosystem. In [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining], this is the Authorization Server in trust domain A, which is also trusted by the Resource Authorization Server in trust domain B. Resource Authorization Server (AS) Issues OAuth 2.0 access tokens for protected resources provided by the Resource Server. In [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining], this is the Authorization Server in trust domain B, and trusts cross-domain authorization grants Section 3 from the IdP Authorization Server. Resource Server (RS) Hosts protected resources and validates access tokens issued by the Resource Authorization Server. In [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining], this is the Protected Resource in trust domain B. The Resource Server has no direct trust relationship with the IdP Authorization Server. Instead, it validates access tokens issued by its trusted Resource Authorization Server to determine who should have access to resources. Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 4] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 3. Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant The Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant (ID-JAG) is a profile of the JWT Authorization Grant [RFC7523] that grants a client delegated access to a resource in another trust domain on behalf of a user without a direct user-approval step at the authorization server. An Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant is issued and signed by an IdP similar to an ID Token [OpenID.Core], and contains claims about an end-user. Instead of being issued for a client (Relying Party in [OpenID.Core]) as the intended audience for the assertion, it is instead issued with an audience of an Authorization Server in another trust domain. It replaces the need for the client to obtain an authorization code from the Resource Authorization Server to delegate access to the client, and instead uses the IdP which is trusted by the Authorization Server to delegate access to the client. As described in [OpenID.Core], ID Tokens are only intended to be processed by the Relying Party (indicated by the ID Token audience) or the Issuer (e.g. for revocation), and not by other actors in a different trust domain such as an Authorization Server. The following claims are used within the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant: iss: REQUIRED - The issuer identifier of the IdP authorization server as defined in [RFC8414] sub: REQUIRED - The subject identifier (e.g. user ID) of the resource owner at the Resource Authorization Server as defined in [OpenID.Core] aud: REQUIRED - The issuer identifier of the Resource Authorization Server as defined in [RFC8414] client_id: REQUIRED - An identifier of the client that will act on behalf of the resource owner. It MUST be recognized by the Resource Authorization Server. For interoperability, the client identifier SHOULD be a client_id as defined in Section 4.3 of [RFC8693]. See Section 5 for additional considerations. jti: REQUIRED - Unique ID of this JWT as defined in Section 4.1.7 of [RFC7519] exp: REQUIRED - as defined in Section 4.1.4 of [RFC7519] iat: REQUIRED - as defined in Section 4.1.6 of [RFC7519] Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 5] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 resource: OPTIONAL - The Resource Identifier (Section 2 of [RFC8707]) of the Resource Server (either a single URI or an array of URIs) scope: OPTIONAL - a JSON string containing a space-separated list of scopes associated with the token, in the format described in Section 3.3 of [RFC6749] tenant: OPTIONAL - JSON string that represents the tenant identifier for a multi-tenant issuer as defined in [OpenID.Enterprise] auth_time: OPTIONAL - Time when end-user authenticated to the client as defined in [OpenID.Core] acr: OPTIONAL - Authentication Context Class Reference that was satisfied when authenticating the end-user as defined in [OpenID.Core] amr: OPTIONAL - Identifiers for authentication methods used when authenticating the end-user as defined in [OpenID.Core] The typ of the JWT indicated in the JWT header MUST be oauth-id- jag+jwt. Using typed JWTs is a recommendation of the JSON Web Token Best Current Practices (Section 3.11 of [RFC8725]). A non-normative example JWT with expanded header and payload claims is below: Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 6] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 { "typ": "oauth-id-jag+jwt" } . { "jti": "9e43f81b64a33f20116179", "iss": "https://acme.idp.example", "sub": "U019488227", "aud": "https://acme.chat.example/", "client_id": "f53f191f9311af35", "exp": 1311281970, "iat": 1311280970, "resource": "https://acme.chat.example/api", "scope": "chat.read chat.history", "auth_time": 1311280970, "amr": [ "mfa", "phrh", "hwk", "user" ] } . signature The Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant may contain additional Authentication, Identity, or Authorization claims that are valid for an ID Token as the grant functions as an identity assertion for the Resource App. Implementation notes: * sub should be an opaque ID, as iss+sub is unique. The IdP might want to also include the user's email here, which it should do as a new email claim. This would let the app dedupe existing users who may have an account with an email address but have not done SSO yet. 4. Cross-Domain Access 4.1. Overview The example flow is for an enterprise acme, which uses a multi-tenant wiki app and chat app from different vendors, both of which are integrated into the enterprise's multi-tenant Identity Provider using OpenID Connect.

User authenticates with the IdP Authorization Server, the Client obtains an Identity Assertion (e.g. OpenID Connect ID Token or SAML 2.0 assertion) for the user and optionally a Refresh Token (when using OpenID Connect) and signs the user in 2. Client uses the Identity Assertion to request an Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant for the Resource Authorization Server from the IdP Authorization Server Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 9] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 3. Client exchanges the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant for an Access Token at the Resource Authorization Server's token endpoint 4. Client makes an API request to the Resource Server with the Access Token This specification is constrained to deployments where a set of Resource Authorization Servers for applications used by an organization are trusting the same IdP Authorization Server for Single Sign-On (SSO). The IdP Authorization Server provides a consistent trust boundary and user identity for the set of Resource Authorization Servers to honor the ID-JAG issued by the IdP. The Resource Authorization Server not only delegates user authentication but also delegates user authorization authority to the IdP Authorization Server for the scopes and resource specified in the ID- JAG and does not need obtain user consent directly from the resource owner. 4.2. User Authentication The Client initiates an authentication request with the IdP using OpenID Connect or SAML. The following is an example using OpenID Connect 302 Redirect Location: https://acme.idp.example/authorize?response_type=code&scope=openid%20offline_access&client_id=... The user authenticates with the IdP, and is redirected back to the Client with an authorization code, which it can then exchange for an ID Token and optionally a Refresh Token when offline_access scope is requested per [OpenID.Core]. Note: The IdP Authorization Server may enforce security controls such as multi-factor authentication before granting the user access to the Client. Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 10] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 POST /token HTTP/1.1 Host: acme.idp.example Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded grant_type=authorization_code &code=.....

Token Exchange The Client makes a Token Exchange [RFC8693] request to the IdP's Token Endpoint with the following parameters: requested_token_type: REQUIRED - The value urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id-jag indicates that an ID Assertion JWT is being requested. audience: REQUIRED - The Issuer URL of the Resource Authorization Server as defined in Section 2 of [RFC8414]. resource: OPTIONAL - The Resource Identifier of the Resource Server as defined in Section 2 of [RFC8707]. scope: OPTIONAL - The space-separated list of scopes at the Resource Server that is being requested. subject_token: REQUIRED - The identity assertion (e.g. the OpenID Connect ID Token or SAML assertion) for the target end-user. subject_token_type: REQUIRED - An identifier, as described in Section 3 of [RFC8693], that indicates the type of the security token in the subject_token parameter. For an OpenID Connect ID Token: urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id_token, or for a SAML assertion: urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:saml2. The additional parameters defined in Section 2.1 of [RFC8693] actor_token and actor_token_type are not used in this specification. Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 11] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 Client authentication to the authorization server is done using the standard mechanisms provided by OAuth 2.0. Section 2.3.1 of [RFC6749] defines password-based authentication of the client (client_id and client_secret), however, client authentication is extensible and other mechanisms are possible. For example, [RFC7523] defines client authentication using bearer JSON Web Tokens using client_assertion and client_assertion_type. The example below uses an ID Token as the Identity Assertion, and uses a JWT Bearer Assertion [RFC7523] as the client authentication method, (tokens truncated for brevity): POST /oauth2/token HTTP/1.1 Host: acme.idp.example Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:token-exchange &requested_token_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id-jag &audience=https://acme.chat.example/ &resource=https://api.chat.example/ &scope=chat.read+chat.history &subject_token=eyJraWQiOiJzMTZ0cVNtODhwREo4VGZCXzdrSEtQ... &subject_token_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id_token &client_assertion_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:client-assertion-type:jwt-bearer &client_assertion=eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6IjIyIn0... 4.3.1. Processing Rules The IdP MUST validate the subject token, and MUST validate that the audience of the Subject Token (e.g. the aud claim of the ID Token) matches the client_id of the client authentication of the request. The IdP evaluates administrator-defined policy for the token exchange request and determines if the client should be granted access to act on behalf of the subject for the target audience and scopes. The IdP may also introspect the authentication context described in the SSO assertion to determine if step-up authentication is required. 4.3.2. Response If access is granted, the IdP creates a signed Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant (Section 3) and returns it in the token exchange response defined in Section 2.2 of [RFC8693]: Parecki, et al.

Various policies in the IdP may result in different scopes being issued from the scopes the application requested. expires_in: RECOMMENDED - The lifetime in seconds of the authorization grant. refresh_token: OPTIONAL according to Section 2.2 of [RFC8693].

Access Token Request The Client makes an access token request to the Resource Authorization Server's token endpoint using the previously obtained Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant as a JWT Bearer Assertion as defined by [RFC7523]. grant_type: REQUIRED - The value of grant_type is urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 14] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 assertion: REQUIRED - The Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant obtained in the previous token exchange step The Client authenticates with its credentials as registered with the Resource Authorization Server.

Processing Rules All of Section 5.2 of [RFC7521] applies, in addition to the following processing rules: * Validate the JWT typ is oauth-id-jag+jwt (per Section 3.11 of [RFC8725]) * The aud claim MUST identify the Issuer URL of the Resource Authorization Server as the intended audience of the JWT. * The client_id claim MUST identify the same client as the client authentication in the request. * The Resource Authorization Server MUST follow Section 3.3 of [RFC6749] when processing the scope claim. 4.4.2. Response The Resource Authorization Server's token endpoint responds with an OAuth 2.0 Token Response, e.g.: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8 Cache-Control: no-store Pragma: no-cache { "token_type": "Bearer", "access_token": "2YotnFZFEjr1zCsicMWpAA", "expires_in": 86400, "scope": "chat.read chat.history" } Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 15] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 4.4.3. Refresh Token The Resource Authorization Server SHOULD NOT return a Refresh Token when an Identity Assertion JWT Authorization is exchanged for an Access Token per Section 5.2 of [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining]. When the access token has expired, clients SHOULD re-submit the original Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant to obtain a new Access Token. The ID-JAG replaces the use Refresh Token for the Resource Authorization Server. If the ID-JAG has expired, the Client SHOULD request a new ID-JAG from the IdP Authorization Server before presenting it to the Resource Authorization Sever using the original Identity Assertion from the IdP (e.g ID Token) If the ID Token is expired, the Client MAY use the Refresh Token obtained from the IdP during SSO to obtain a new ID Token which it can exchange for a new ID-JAG. If the Client is unable to obtain a new Identity Assertion with a Refresh Token then it SHOULD re- authenticate the user by redirecting to the IdP. 5. Cross-Domain Client ID Handling There are three separate OAuth/OpenID Connect/SAML relationships involved in this flow: * Client to IdP Authorization Server (OpenID Connect or SAML) * Client to Resource Authorization Server (OAuth) * Resource Authorization Server to IdP Authorization Server (OpenID Connect or SAML) Each relationship is typically represented by independent client registrations between each party. For example, the IdP Authorization Server typically issues a Client ID for both the Client and Resource Authorization Server to use for single sign-on with OpenID Connect as a Relying Party. Similarly, the Resource Authorization Server typically issues a Client ID for the Client to use for API access to the Resource Server. The Client may choose to use different client credentials with each registration. Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 16] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 In this flow, the IdP Authorization Server accepts a Token Exchange request from the Client, and issues an ID-JAG that will be consumed by the Resource Authorization Server. This means the IdP Authorization Server needs to know about the relationship between the Client and the Resource Authorization Server, in order to include a client_id claim in the ID-JAG that will be recognized by the Resource Authorization Server. This can be handled by the IdP Authorization Server maintaining a record of each client_id used between Clients and Resource Authorization Servers, which will need to be obtained by out-of-band mechanisms. The Client still needs to authenticate using its registered credential with the Resource Authorization Server when presenting the ID-JAG for the mapped client_id. Requiring a confidential client helps to prevent the IdP Authorization Server from delegating access to any of the valid clients for the Resource Authorization Server. Note: The IdP Authorization Server is also responsible for mapping subject identifiers across Clients and trust domains in the ID-JAG. The same user may have a pair-wise subject identifier issued in an ID Token for SSO to the Client and another with SSO to the Resource Authorization Server as a Relying Party. The Resource Authorization Server needs consistent subject identifiers for account resolution for both SSO and API access. The IdP Authorization Server needs to ensure that the subject identifier issued in the ID-JAG is the same identifier for the user that it would have included in an ID Token intended for the Resource Authorization Server. Alternatively, if clients use "Client ID Metadata Document" [I-D.ietf-oauth-client-id-metadata-document] as their client identifiers, this acts as a shared global namespace of Client IDs and removes the need for the IdP Authorization Server to maintain a mapping of each client registration. 6. Authorization Server (IdP) Metadata An IdP can advertise its support for this profile in its OAuth Authorization Server Metadata [RFC8414]. Identity and Authorization Chaining Across Domains [I-D.ietf-oauth-identity-chaining] defines a new metadata property identity_chaining_requested_token_types_supported for this purpose. To advertise support for the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant, the authorization server SHOULD include the following value in the identity_chaining_requested_token_types_supported property: urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id-jag Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 17] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 7. Security Considerations 7.1. Client Authentication This specification SHOULD only be supported for confidential clients. Public clients SHOULD use the existing authorization code grant and redirect the user to the Resource Authorization Server with an OAuth 2.0 Authorization Request where the user can interactively consent to the access delegation. 7.2. Step-Up Authentication In the initial token exchange request, the IdP may require step-up authentication for the subject if the authentication context in the subject's assertion does not meet policy requirements. An insufficient_user_authentication OAuth error response may be returned to convey the authentication requirements back to the client similar to OAuth 2.0 Step-up Authentication Challenge Protocol [RFC9470]. HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request Content-Type: application/json Cache-Control: no-store { "error": "insufficient_user_authentication", "error_description": "Subject doesn't meet authentication requirements", "max_age": 5 } The Client would need to redirect the user back to the IdP to obtain a new assertion that meets the requirements and retry the token exchange. TBD: It may make more sense to request the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant in the authorization request if using OpenID Connect for SSO when performing a step-up to skip the need for additional token exchange round-trip. 7.3. Cross-Domain Use This specification is intended for cross-domain uses where the Client, Resource App, and Identity Provider are all in different trust domains. In particular, the Identity Provider MUST NOT issue access tokens in response to an ID-JAG it issued itself. Doing so could lead to unintentional broadening of the scope of authorization. 8. IANA Considerations Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 18] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 8.1. Media Types This section registers oauth-id-jag+jwt, a new media type [RFC2046] in the "Media Types" registry [IANA.media-types] in the manner described in [RFC6838]. It can be used to indicate that the content is an Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant. 8.2. OAuth URI Registration This section registers urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id-jag in the "OAuth URI" subregistry of the "OAuth Parameters" registry [IANA.oauth-parameters]. * URN: urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:id-jag * Common Name: Token type URI for an Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant * Change Controller: IETF * Specification Document: This document 8.3.

Parecki, "OAuth 2.0 Protected Resource Metadata", RFC 9728, DOI 10.17487/RFC9728, April 2025, . Appendix A. Use Cases A.1. Enterprise Deployment Enterprises often have hundreds of SaaS applications. SaaS applications often have integrations to other SaaS applications that are critical to the application experience and jobs to be done. When a SaaS app needs to request an access token on behalf of a user to a 3rd party SaaS integration's API, the end-user typically needs to complete an interactive delegated OAuth 2.0 flow, as the SaaS application is not in the same security or policy domain as the 3rd party SaaS integration. It is industry best practice for an enterprise to connect their ecosystem of SaaS applications to their Identity Provider (IdP) to centralize identity and access management capabilities for the organization. End-users get a better experience (SSO) and administrators get better security outcomes such multi-factor authentication and zero-trust. SaaS applications today enable the administrator to establish trust with an IdP for user authentication. This specification can be used to extend the SSO relationship of multiple SaaS applications to include API access between these applications as well. This specification enables federation for Authorization Servers across policy or administrative boundaries. The same enterprise IdP that is trusted by applications for SSO can be extended to broker access to APIs. This enables the enterprise to centralize more access decisions across their SaaS ecosystem and provides better end-user experience for users that need to connect multiple applications via OAuth 2.0. A.1.1. Preconditions * The Client has a registered OAuth 2.0 Client with the IdP Authorization Server * The Client has a registered OAuth 2.0 Client with the Resource Authorization Server * Enterprise has established a trust relationship between their IdP and the Client for SSO and Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 22] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 * Enterprise has established a trust relationship between their IdP and the Resource Authorization Server for SSO and Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant * Enterprise has granted the Client permission to act on behalf of users for the Resource Authorization Server with a set of scopes A.2. Email and Calendaring Applications Email clients can be used with arbitrary email servers, and cannot require pre-established relationships between each email client and each email server. When an email client uses OAuth to obtain an access token to an email server, this provides the security benefit of being able to use strong multi-factor authentication methods provided by the email server's authorization server, but does require that the user go through a web-based flow to log in to the email client. However, this web-based flow is often seen as disruptive to the user experience when initiated from a desktop or mobile native application, and so is often attempted to be minimized as much as possible. When the email client needs access to a separate API, such as a third-party calendaring application, traditionally this would require that the email client go through another web-based OAuth redirect flow to obtain authorization and ultimately an access token. To streamline the user experience, this specification can be used to enable the email client to use the identity assertion to obtain an access token for the third-party calendaring application without any user interaction. A.2.1. Preconditions * The Client does not have a pre-registered OAuth 2.0 client at the IdP Authorization Server or the Resource Authorization Server * The Client has obtained an Identity Assertion (e.g. ID Token) from the IdP Authorization Server * The Resource Authorization Server is configured to allow the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant from unregistered clients Parecki, et al. Expires 22 April 2026 [Page 23] Internet-Draft ID JWT Authz Grant October 2025 A.3. LLM Agent using Enterprise Tools AI agents, including those based on large language models (LLMs), are designed to manage user context, memory, and interaction state across multi-turn conversations. To perform complex tasks, these agents often integrate with external systems such as SaaS applications, internal services, or enterprise data sources. When accessing these systems, the agent operates on behalf of the end user, and its actions are constrained by the user’s identity, role, and permissions as defined by the enterprise. This ensures that all data access and operations are properly scoped and compliant with organizational access controls. A.3.1. Preconditions * The LLM Agent has a registered OAuth 2.0 Client (com.example.ai- agent) with the Enterprise IdP (cyberdyne.idp.example) * The LLM Agent has a registered OAuth 2.0 Client (4960880b83dc9) with the External Tool Application (saas.example.net) * Enterprise has established a trust relationship between their IdP and the LLM Agent for SSO * Enterprise has established a trust relationship between their IdP and the External Tool Application for SSO and Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant * Enterprise has granted the LLM Agent permission to act on behalf of users for the External Tool Application with a specific set of scopes A.3.2. Example Sequence The steps below describe the sequence of the LLM agent obtaining an access token using an Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant (Section 3). A.3.2.1. LLM Agent establishes a User Identity with Enterprise IdP LLM Agent discovers the Enterprise IdP's OpenID Connect Provider configuration based on a configured issuer that was previously established. Note: IdP discovery where an agent discovers which IdP the agent should use to authenticate a given user is out of scope of this specification. Parecki, et al.

If the urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer grant type is supported the LLM can first attempt to silently obtain an access token using an Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant from the Enterprise's IdP otherwise it can fallback to interactively obtaining a standard authorization_code from the SaaS Application's Authorization Server Note: This would benefit from an Authorization Server Metadata [RFC8414] property to indicate whether the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant form of jwt-bearer would be accepted by this authorization server. There are other uses of jwt-bearer that may be supported by the authorization server as well, and is not necessarily a reliable indication that the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant would be supported.
