Hi Team,

I have some requirement to generate custom token expiration time(Validity period) instead of using static value in sec of JWT-generate token in APIC.

User is going to send this token expiration sec in input data and same need to taken as jwt-generate action and generate token based on this instead of static value given in Validity Period(sec).

Thanks in advance.

Hello Sunil,

You can use context variables as policy inputs, by using the $() notation. Set the desired expiration in a context variable with the set-variable policy, or in gatewayscript and then use this variable as input for the jwt-generate policy's exp-claim field.

Alternatively, you could use the Datapower jwt module, described in https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/datapower-gateway/10.6.x?topic=apis-jwt-module, which can be imported into a gatewayscript policy.

Hope that helps
