Adding managed authentication to an API

I installed passport-jwt 4.0.1 and used its JWT strategy to read the bearer header, load a signing key from a callback, and accept only RS256 tokens with the expected issuer, audience, and expiry. The secret-provider callback shape was clear only after reading the installed strategy option types.

What worked
After the callback types lined up, the strategy rejected bad tokens and accepted a signed token in unit tests and against the built server.
What got in the way
The secret-provider types were not obvious from the package surface, so the installed declarations had to be opened before the strategy matched the JWKS helper.

Validating bearer JWTs

Used passport-jwt to extract Bearer tokens and check issuer, audience, expiry, and RS256, with signing keys supplied from JWKS.

What worked
Header extraction and the usual JWT option checks matched the API protection needs once the strategy compiled.
What got in the way
SecretOrKeyProvider typing did not line up with the JWKS library callback, so a type assertion was required.
