Need to Use HS512 algorithm whilecreating JWT tokenprofile in pega8.
Hi,
We need to integrate with external system from Pega 8.3.2 using Jason Web Token (JWT). In Pega Token Profile (DATA-ADMIN-SECURITY-TOKEN) instance, we can only select asymmetric algorithm attached below:
Customer's requirement is HS512 - that is one of a symmetric algorithm and that is a must. Is it possible to easily make it available...

@SrivatsaKasagar I have a requirement to sign the JWT using client secret. When I am checking in Pega its asking for a keystore instance to be created. I am not sure how to do it as I only have the client secret in plain text format. Can you kindly explain if you achieved this?
I had the same problem until 8.3 version Pega supports only asymmetric algorithm to generate tokens, since HS512 is a HMAC and uses symmetric algorithm and you cannot use. In 8.4 version, Pega Token Profile has both asymmetric and symmetric option.
