Question

Does Appian Have a Way to Create a JWS (JSON Web Signature) for POST Body?

I am sending a POST request via an integration, and this endpoint requires that a JWS (signature of the body) is sent in a header. This is similar to a JWT, except that what is signed is the body of the POST rather than the claims included in the token. In our instance, I see the plugin functions for creating JWTs, but none of them seem to have the ability to create a JWS.

Any ideas on this one or will I have to create my own function plugin?

    It does have a JWT available via a plugin. But AFAIK, it does not have a JWS.

    1. Create our own java API-> host it somewhere-> call API via appian Integration.
    2. Create java code -> handover to Appian support team for custom plug in function creation for specific site
    3. Any Other option

    Im also trying to sign+encrypt a payload before sending it to an API, as well as trying to decrypt+verify their response.

    If anyone can help in this case.
    Best Regards
