REST Connector Authentication with OIDC
Hi, is there any step by step documentation how to configure a REST Connector with Open ID Connect Autentication without using active SSO session token.
I believe I have to configure OAuth 2.0 with a JWT Bearer token but more details would be great.

you can configure a REST Connector with Open ID Connect Authentication using OAuth 2.0 with a JWT Bearer token. Here are the steps you can follow:
1. **Create and open the OAuth 2.0 profile**:
- In the Client configuration section, provide the following data:
- In the OAuth 2.0 Provider list, select Google.
- In the Grant type list, select JWT bearer.
- In the Client identifier field, enter the unique ID of your Google Cloud service account.
- In the JWT assertion section, select Use JWT generation profile, and then in the JWT generation template field, enter the name of the previously created token profile.
- In the Advanced configuration section, in the Secure protocol configuration area, in the Lowest allowable SSL/TLS version list, select TLS version 1.2.
- Click Save.
2. **Configure the OAuth 2.0 authentication profile**:
- In the Authentication scheme list, select Private Key JSON Web Token (JWT).
- Select Use JWT generation profile.
- In the JWT generation profile field, press the Down arrow key to select a JWT generation profile, or click the Open icon to create a JWT profile.
3. **Specify a proxy for your REST connector (if needed)**:

3. **Specify a proxy for your REST connector (if needed)**:
- In the Advanced configuration section, select the Use proxy checkbox, and then configure the remaining proxy parameters:
- In the Host field, enter the address of the proxy host.
- In the Port field, enter the port number.
- To add the authentication details, select the Use Authentication checkbox, and then enter the user ID and password.
4. **Invoke your connector**:
- Enable authentication and select the authentication profile you created.
- Invoke your connector like you normally do. You don't have to set the Authorization header explicitly. When the authentication type on the authentication profile rule form is OAuth, the authorization header is constructed and added automatically.
These steps should help you configure your REST Connector with Open ID Connect Authentication using OAuth 2.0 with a JWT Bearer token.",
