Yes indeed a nice job !!!!.
I have one question on the RFC.
Not sure where I can submit request for comments. Hence, adding to this email
thread
In the use-case mentioned belowThe following is a non-normative example
response for a token that
has been revoked or is otherwise invalid:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
{
"active": false
}
Where the token is revoked or invalid, why not send a HTTP response code of 400
There are 2 benefits for the same.A. Just looking at the header, we know that
token validation didn't went through. No need to look in the payload. This is
especially very helpful in gateway design implementation.
B. You are further hiding from the user why the request failed and not letting
him know if the token was processed by the server.
