We're still working on this feature, but we'd love for you to try it out!

This feature is currently provided as part of a preview program pursuant to our pre-release policies.

This page provides a comprehensive reference for authentication actions available in the workflow automation actions catalog. These actions enable you to create and manage JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for secure authentication in your workflows.
