Hey guys, Id like to allow a third party API to get a JWT token via descope. Essentially a token which would have the same signer as if a user logged into the app directly. Is the best way to do this an Inbound or Outbound app connection? Currently the JWT token authenticates our backend. Id like to allow a third party application a path to get a similar/same JWT token so it can authenticate to our backend as well

Hey @drake evans (agora) - this sounds like a good use of client credentials flow with inbound apps. https://docs.descope.com/identity-federation/inbound-apps/using-inbound-apps#client-credentials-flow Attached is a brief PDF covering generally how to test this flow as well.
