External JWT
Overview
This API has been available since 1.1.0
This is a special type of identity provider that is only used via the JWT Reconcile API. This identity provider defines the claims inside the incoming JWT and how they map to fields in the FusionAuth User object.
This external JWT Identity Provider flow is not compatible with the hosted login pages. This integration is accessible through our API only.
Additionally, if you are integrating with any of the identity providers for which there is a provided Identity Provider integration (whether specific like Facebook or generic like OIDC), prefer those options over this provider.
In general, you should use the /api/identity-provider/login
endpoint of another Identity Provider rather than the External JWT provider if one is available.
In order for this identity provider to use the JWT, it also needs the public key or HMAC secret that the JWT was signed with. FusionAuth will verify that the JWT is valid and has not expired. Once the JWT has been validated, FusionAuth will reconcile it to ensure that the User exists and is up-to-date.
FusionAuth will also store the true token provided in the refresh_token field
returned from the request in the identityProviderLink
object, in the identityProviderLink.token field. This object is accessible using the Link API.
The identityProviderLink
object stores the token so that you can use it in your application to call true APIs on behalf of the user if desired.
1.28.0
, the token was stored in the UserRegistration
object, in the tokens
Map. Request
The type property in the request JSON is used to determine that you are managing an External JWT identity provider.
Request Parameters
identityProviderId
UUIDDefaults to secure random UUIDThe Id to use for the new Identity Provider. If an id is not provided, a secure random UUID is generated.
Request Body
identityProvider.applicationConfiguration
Map<UUID, Optional>The configuration for each Application that the identity provider is enabled for.
identityProvider.applicationConfiguration[applicationId].createRegistration
BooleanDefaults to trueDetermines if a UserRegistration is created for the User automatically or not. If a user doesn’t exist in FusionAuth and logs in through an identity provider, this boolean controls whether or not FusionAuth creates a registration for the User in the Application they are logging into.
identityProvider.applicationConfiguration[applicationId].enabled
BooleanDefaults to falseDetermines if this identity provider is enabled for the Application specified by the applicationId
key.
identityProvider.claimMap
Map<String, String>A map of incoming claims to User fields, User data or Registration data. The key of the map is the incoming claim name from the configured identity provider. The following are allowed values: +
birthDate
firstName
lastName
fullName
middleName
mobilePhone
imageUrl
timezone
UserData
RegistrationData
identityProvider.debug
BooleanDefaults to falseAvailable since 1.7.3Determines if debug is enabled for this provider. When enabled, an Event Log is created each time this provider is invoked to reconcile a login.
This is useful for debugging purposes, but is not intended to be left on during production. It should be enabled during integration or if you are experiencing an issue with this identity provider.
identityProvider.defaultKeyId
When configured this key will be used to verify the signature of the JWT when the header key defined by the headerKeyParameter property is not found in the JWT header. In most cases, the JWT header will contain the key identifier and this value will be used to resolve the correct public key or X.509 certificate to verify the signature. This assumes the public key or X.509 certificate has already been imported using the Key API or Key Master in the FusionAuth admin UI.
identityProvider.domains
An array of domains that are managed by this Identity Provider.
identityProvider.enabled
BooleanDefaults to falseDetermines if this provider is enabled. If it is false then it will be disabled globally.
identityProvider.oauth2.emailClaim
StringDefaults to emailThe name of the claim that contains the user’s email address. This will only be used when the identityProvider.linkingStrategy is equal to LinkByEmail
or LinkByEmailForExistingUser
.
identityProvider.oauth2.emailVerifiedClaim
StringDefaults to email_verifiedAvailable since 1.48.0The name of the claim that identities if the user’s email address has been verified.
When the identityProvider.linkingStrategy is equal to LinkByEmail
or LinkByEmailForExistingUser
and this claim is present and the value is false
a link will not be established and an error will be returned indicating a link cannot be established using an unverified email address.
identityProvider.headerKeyParameter
StringrequiredThe name header claim that identifies the public key used to verify the signature. In most cases this be kid
or x5t
.
identityProvider.keys
Map<String, String>A map of public keys used to verify JWT signatures issued from the configured Identity Provider. The key is the key identifier, this
may be referred to as the kid
or for X.509 certificates the x5t
claim may be used.
The map may contain one entry with an empty map key. When provided this key will be used when no header claim is provided to indicate which public key should be used to verify the signature. Generally speaking this will only be used when the Identity Provider issues JWTs without a key identifier in the header.
identityProvider.lambdaConfiguration.reconcileId
UUIDAvailable since 1.17.0The unique Id of the lambda to used during the user reconcile process to map custom claims from the external identity provider to the FusionAuth user. This may be used in addition to, or in place of the claim mappings.
The specified Lambda Id must be of type ExternalJWTReconcile
identityProvider.linkingStrategy
StringDefaults to LinkByEmailAvailable since 1.28.0The linking strategy to use when creating the link between the External JWT Identity Provider and the user.
The possible values are:
CreatePendingLink
- Do not automatically link, instead return a pending link identifier that can be used to link to an existing user.LinkAnonymously
- Always create a link based upon the unique Id returned by the identify provider. A username or email is not required and will not be used to link the user. A reconcile lambda will not be used in this configuration.LinkByEmail
- Link to an existing user based upon email. A user will be created with the email returned by the identity provider if one does not already exist.LinkByEmailForExistingUser
- Only link to an existing user based upon email. A user will not be created if one does not already exist with email returned by the identity provider.LinkByUsername
- Link to an existing user based upon username. A user will be created with the username returned by the identity provider if one does not already exist.LinkByUsernameForExistingUser
- Only link to an existing user based upon username. A user will not be created if one does not already exist with username returned by the identity provider.
When the identityProvider.linkingStrategy is equal to LinkByEmail
or LinkByEmailForExistingUser
and the email_verified
claim is present on the response from the External JWT Identity Provider and the value is false
a link will not be established and an error will be returned indicating a link cannot be established using an unverified email address.
identityProvider.name
StringrequiredThe name of the Identity Provider.
identityProvider.oauth2.authorization_endpoint
StringThe authorization endpoint for this Identity Provider. This value is not utilized by FusionAuth is only provided to be returned by the Lookup Identity Provider API response. During integration you may then utilize this value to perform the browser redirect to the OAuth2 authorize endpoint.
identityProvider.oauth2.token_endpoint
StringThe token endpoint for this Identity Provider. This value is not utilized by FusionAuth is only provided to be returned by the Lookup Identity Provider API response. During integration you may then utilize this value to complete the OAuth2 grant workflow.
identityProvider.oauth2.uniqueIdClaim
StringDefaults to subThe name of the claim that contains the user’s unique user Id.
identityProvider.oauth2.usernameClaim
StringDefaults to preferred_usernameThe name of the claim that contains the user’s username. This will only be used when the identityProvider.linkingStrategy is equal to LinkByUsername
or LinkByUsernameForExistingUser
.

Update an External JWT Identity Provider
This API is used to update an existing External JWT Identity Provider.
You must specify all of the properties of the External JWT Identity Provider when calling this API with the PUT
HTTP method. When used with PUT
, this API doesn’t merge the existing External JWT Identity Provider and your new data. It replaces the existing External JWT Identity Provider with your new data.
Utilize the PATCH
HTTP method to send specific changes to merge into an existing External JWT Identity Provider.
Request
When using the PATCH method, you can either use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request for backward compatibility. Or you may use either JSON Patch/RFC 6902] or JSON Merge Patch/RFC 7396. See the PATCH documentation for more information.
When using the PATCH method with a Content-Type
of application/json
the provided request parameters will be merged into the existing object, this means all parameters are optional when using the PATCH method and you only provide the values you want changed. A null
value can be used to remove a value. Patching an Array
will result in all values from the new list being appended to the existing list, this is a known limitation to the current implementation of PATCH.

Request Parameters
identityProviderId
UUIDrequiredThe unique Id of the Identity Provider to update.
Request Body
identityProvider.applicationConfiguration
Map<UUID, Optional>The configuration for each Application that the identity provider is enabled for.
identityProvider.applicationConfiguration[applicationId].createRegistration
BooleanDefaults to trueDetermines if a UserRegistration is created for the User automatically or not. If a user doesn’t exist in FusionAuth and logs in through an identity provider, this boolean controls whether or not FusionAuth creates a registration for the User in the Application they are logging into.
identityProvider.applicationConfiguration[applicationId].enabled
BooleanDefaults to falseDetermines if this identity provider is enabled for the Application specified by the applicationId
key.
identityProvider.claimMap
Map<String, String>A map of incoming claims to User fields, User data or Registration data. The key of the map is the incoming claim name from the configured identity provider. The following are allowed values: +
birthDate
firstName
lastName
fullName
middleName
mobilePhone
imageUrl
timezone
UserData
RegistrationData
identityProvider.debug
BooleanDefaults to falseAvailable since 1.7.3Determines if debug is enabled for this provider. When enabled, an Event Log is created each time this provider is invoked to reconcile a login.
This is useful for debugging purposes, but is not intended to be left on during production. It should be enabled during integration or if you are experiencing an issue with this identity provider.
identityProvider.defaultKeyId
When configured this key will be used to verify the signature of the JWT when the header key defined by the headerKeyParameter property is not found in the JWT header. In most cases, the JWT header will contain the key identifier and this value will be used to resolve the correct public key or X.509 certificate to verify the signature. This assumes the public key or X.509 certificate has already been imported using the Key API or Key Master in the FusionAuth admin UI.
identityProvider.domains
An array of domains that are managed by this Identity Provider.
identityProvider.enabled
BooleanDefaults to falseDetermines if this provider is enabled. If it is false then it will be disabled globally.

may be referred to as the kid
or for X.509 certificates the x5t
claim may be used.
The map may contain one entry with an empty map key. When provided this key will be used when no header claim is provided to indicate which public key should be used to verify the signature. Generally speaking this will only be used when the Identity Provider issues JWTs without a key identifier in the header.
identityProvider.lambdaConfiguration.reconcileId
UUIDAvailable since 1.17.0The unique Id of the lambda to used during the user reconcile process to map custom claims from the external identity provider to the FusionAuth user. This may be used in addition to, or in place of the claim mappings.

This API does not return a JSON response body.
Response CodesCode | Description |
---|---|
200 | The request was successful. |
400 | The request was invalid and/or malformed. The response will contain an Errors JSON Object with the specific errors. This status will also be returned if a paid FusionAuth license is required and is not present. |

Complete the External JWT Login
This API allows you to complete an External JWT login after retrieving the external JWT and processing it.
For example, if you have a JWT representing a user, using this API you can pass that JWT returned from an external service to FusionAuth and we will complete the login workflow and reconcile the user to FusionAuth.
The user does not need to exist yet in FusionAuth to utilize this API, depending on the configured linking strategy. The token returned will be used to retrieve the user’s email address or username and if that user does not yet exist in FusionAuth the user may be created.
If createRegistration has been enabled for this identity provider and the user does not yet have a registration for this application, a registration will be automatically created for the user. The user will be assigned any default roles configured for the application.
If createRegistration has not been enabled, a registration will not be created if one does not yet exist. This is useful if you wish to manually provision users and then subsequently allow them to login.
Request
Request Headers
X-Forwarded-For
StringThe IP address of a client requesting authentication. If the IP address is provided it will be stored in the user’s login record. It is generally preferred to specify the IP address in the request body. If it is not provided in the request body this header value will be used if available. However, the request body value takes precedence.
X-FusionAuth-TenantId
StringThe unique Id of the tenant used to scope this API request.
The tenant Id is not required on this request even when more than one tenant has been configured because the tenant can be identified based upon the request parameters or it is otherwise not required.
Specify a tenant Id on this request when you want to ensure the request is scoped to a specific tenant. The tenant Id may be provided through this header or by using a tenant locked API key to achieve the same result.
See Making an API request using a Tenant Id for additional information.
Request Body
applicationId
UUIDrequiredencodedJWT
StringrequiredidentityProviderId
UUIDrequiredThe unique Id of the identity provider to process this login request.

In version 1.46.0
and beyond, this value can be any string value you'd like, have fun with it!
noJWT
BooleanDefaults to falseWhen this value is set to true a JWT will not be issued as part of this request. The response body will not contain the token
field, and the access_token
and refresh_token
cookies will not be written to the HTTP response.
This optional parameter may be helpful when performing high volume authentication requests and the JWT is not being utilized, in this scenario removing the additional latency required to issue and sign the JWT may have a measurable cumulative effect on performance.
noLink
BooleanDefaults to falseAvailable since 1.29.0true
, if a link does not yet exist to a FusionAuth user, a 404
status code will be returned instead of using the requested linking strategy. This may be useful if you want to identify if a link exists before starting a full interactive workflow with the user to complete a link.
