sub The subject of the token. Set to the app's associated product uuid.
aud The audience of the token. The App's Token Key.
exp The date and time the token will expire, expressed as a Unix timestamp. Must be after the current date/time. Set to 60 seconds after the JWT was created.
iat The date and time the JWT was issued, expressed as a Unix timestamp. Set to the current time.
jti The unique identifier for the JWT token Set to a random UUID
o.a.p.ctenantId The tenant Id Set to the id of the tenant as identified by the product
o.a.p.cproductUUID The product UUID Set to the UUID of the product associated with the current installation
o.a.p.cproductName The product name Set to the name of the product, associated with the current installation
o.a.p.cdestinationId The destination Id Set to the app's UUID. Found in app details.
o.a.p.cdestinationUrl The destination URL The destination URL is the app's base URL + the app's install URL. These URLs are found in app details.

Signature

Signed with an app's token secret.

Sample JWT Payload

In order to authenticate with the app, AMS constructs a JWT payload using the information details about the app (e.g application uuid, application token key, product affinity, etc). AMS then sign's the JWT using the application's token secret.

Below is an example JWT payload that AMS uses to call the application install endpoint:
