> As of 2023-04-21 in the master branch of the git repository, Kudu allows
> clients to authenticate with servers server using [JWT|https://jwt.io/], JSON
> Web Tokens. However, a missing piece is a means to allow a Kudu client
> application to supply a JWT as its authentication credentials in an
> application-friendly way. The way [how it's done in recently added tests in

> It's necessary to add such a means for both C++ and Java Kudu client API.
> Ideally, the corresponding C++ and Java parts of the API should match and be
