The JWT Token don't contain the securityId property.

[alvis-do]

I am following a JWT authentication document, but when I check the value of the generated JWT token. I don't see the security property, which means this property is undefined.

const user = await this.userService.verifyCredentials(loginReq.provider);

const userProfile = this.userService.convertToUserProfile(user);
console.debug(userProfile[securityId]) // Result: A string value. OK.

const token = await this.jwtService.generateToken(userProfile);
// console.debug inner the generateToken function and Result: An undefined value.

Expect:

The JWT Token generated from jwtService.generateToken function contains an Id property.

Does anybody help me fix this? please

Hi @kudos-cmd

If you take a look at the source you will see the securityId is given to the id property in the generateToken function:

https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/blob/70f37d7cfc09db01ed5cf49c3150ce32ec16fcf2/extensions/authentication-jwt/src/services/jwt.service.ts#L54-L77

Try accessing the id property in this case to access the user's Id. You might also expect to see the property named sub to contain the user (subject) id but that is not the case here.

Forgot to mention if that is no help then post an example of your code in a public repository and post a link for someone to take a look.
