A collection of extra claims to include in the JWT payload.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The string should not contain any single quotes or double quotes.

The : character is a delimiter separating claims and their values, and the | character is a delimiter separating the name-value pairs of each claim. End the list of claims with a semicolon. For example:

JWTClaims = aud : https://my.couchdb.server | nbf : 1720444762;

If you need to use more complex values such as JSON objects or arrays, they have to be base64 encoded. For example:

JWTClaims = my : eyJuZXN0ZWQiOnsiX2NvdWNoZGIucm9sZXMiOlsidXNlcjIiXX19 | nbf : 1720444762;

By default, not all claims in the JWT are validated by Apache CouchDB (only alg). See the documentation of required_claims for information about enforcing the validation of additional claims.
