Apache Solr JWT Authentication Plugin
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
Solr can support [JSON Web Token](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Web_Token) (JWT) based
|
|
Bearer authentication with the use of the JWTAuthPlugin.
|
|
|
|
This allows Solr to assert that a user is already authenticated with an external
|
|
[Identity Provider (IdP)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_provider) by validating
|
|
that the JWT formatted [access token](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_token)
|
|
is digitally signed by the Identity Provider.
|
|
|
|
The typical use case is to integrate Solr with an [OpenID Connect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID_Connect)
|
|
enabled Identity Provider.

|
