(Xojo Plugin) Verify a Google JWT Using Google's Public Key

See more Google APIs Examples

Demonstrates how to verify a JWT that was signed using Google's RSA private key.

This example verifies the RSA signature. It also does the following:

• Checks to see if the time constraints ("nbf" and "exp") are valid.
• Recovers the original JOSE header.
• Recovers the original claims JSON.
