[[oauth2Client-client-auth-support]] = Client Authentication Support [[oauth2Client-jwt-bearer-auth]] == JWT Bearer [NOTE] Please refer to JSON Web Token (JWT) Profile for OAuth 2.0 Client Authentication and Authorization Grants for further details on https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7523#section-2.2[JWT Bearer] Client Authentication. The default implementation for JWT Bearer Client Authentication is `NimbusJwtClientAuthenticationParametersConverter`, which is a `Converter` that customizes the Token Request parameters by adding a signed JSON Web Token (JWS) in the `client_assertion` parameter. The `java.security.PrivateKey` or `javax.crypto.SecretKey` used for signing the JWS is supplied by the `com.nimbusds.jose.jwk.JWK` resolver associated with `NimbusJwtClientAuthenticationParametersConverter`. === Authenticate using `private_key_jwt` Given the following Spring Boot 2.x properties for an OAuth 2.0 Client registration: [source,yaml] ---- spring: security: oauth2: client: registration: okta: client-id: okta-client-id client-authentication-method: private_key_jwt authorization-grant-type: authorization_code ... ---- The following example shows how to configure `WebClientReactiveAuthorizationCodeTokenResponseClient`: ==== .Java [source,java,role="primary"] ---- Function jwkResolver = (clientRegistration) -> { if (clientRegistration.getClientAuthenticationMethod().equals(ClientAuthenticationMethod.PRIVATE_KEY_JWT)) { // Assuming RSA key type RSAPublicKey publicKey = ...
