<!-- Answer --> The root cause is that Superset's API authentication for endpoints like `/api/v1/security/csrf_token/` only accepts HS256-signed JWTs for Bearer tokens, and this is hardcoded in the validation logic. This is separate from the OIDC/OAuth UI login flow, which does support RS256. Configuration flags such as `JWT_ALGORITHMS`, `JWT_DECODE_ALGORITHMS`, or `GUEST_TOKEN_JWT_ALGORITHM` in `superset_config.py` do not affect this API JWT validationâonly HS256 is allowed, and this cannot be changed via config. Accepting RS256-signed JWTs for API Bearer authentication would require code changes or a custom security manager implementation. This separation is why RS256 tokens work for UI login but are rejected by the API with "The specified alg value is not allowed" [source](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/security/manager.py). <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
