This configuration requires to specify a key pair: the former key value, said private, must be shared with clients, while the latter key value, said public, must be kept secret for internal Core usage.
Description
The reference guide (found at https://syncope.apache.org/docs/2.1/reference-guide.html) references JWT asymmetric key signing, but when talking about the keys, it mentions that the private key should be shared and the public key should remain secret. This is the opposite of what is generally practiced. I am assuming that this is a typo and that public and private should be switched.
Here is the wording:
