Advanced tools
Node-red node for sign and validate JWT tokens.
This flow starts with injecting an RSA Private Key and Public Key each to a file (within node-red).
The Sign and Validate node will trigger a JWT claim to be signed using the Private key above (debugging the signed token), and then validating it with the matching Public key (debugging the validated JWT payload)

The Sign and Validate node will trigger a JWT claim to be signed using an Private EC Key retrieved from a URL hosted by node-red (debugging the signed token), and then validating it with the matching Public EC key (debugging the validated JWT payload)
