CouchDB does not issue JWT's. CouchDB _verifies_ JWTs (vis a vis the `[jwt-keys]` that it is configured with. CouchDB supports Authentication via JWT so long as the JWT is sent in an HTTP header titled `Authorization`. CouchDB SHOULD support authentication via JWT sent as an HTTP cookie. Why? Bcs cookies are more secure in that they can be stored on a client as _HTTPOnly_. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
