{% assign claims = options.payload_json__code_multiline | parse_json | json | base64_url_safe_encode %}
{% assign header = '{"alg":"RS256","typ":"JWT"}' | base64_encode %}
{% assign input = header | append: "." | append: claims %}

{% assign signature = input | rsa_sha256: private_key_pem | base64_url_safe_encode %}

{% log header: header, claims: claims, input: input, signature: signature %}
