| NOTE: JWT Authentication support for Eventing is an Early Release feature in Couchbase Server 8.1.0. | ||
|
|
||
| In addition to Basic Authentication and mutual TLS(mTLS), Eventing supports *JSON Web Token (JWT) Authentication*. | ||
| This provides secure, short-lived sessions (defaulting to 5 minutes) for crucial operations, consistent with the JWT support available for Indexing, Query, Backup, and XDCR. |

Let's add documentation reference links for any external services supporting JWT wherever they are available.

As we discussed, this might not be required. Hence, leaving this as is for now. Will add the links to the other Couchbase Server documentation that explains JWT Authentication in detail. Will add it later when it is ready.

I think the server docs team might be adding overview docs for the use of JWT in Couchbase. We can merge this PR without links to those overview docs for now, and then add links when the overview docs are ready.
