Portkey JWT / IdP token for Portkey authentication jwt discovered

Portkey supports JWT-based authentication for some integrations. Configure JWT/IdP-based auth through Portkey's MCP Gateway or enterprise identity setup as described in MCP Advanced Configuration and Authorization. This is typically obtained by signing users into your configured identity provider and having Portkey validate the token via your configured jwksUri.
