Zero Trust Authentication
Hi guys, I'm thinking of using Cloudflare Zero trust on a new application we're developing, to authenticate users. What are people doing when it comes to local development (not through Cloudflare)? Emulating the CF_Authorization token? I can't seem to find a zero trust "emulator". Cheers!

What are you looking to do with your application? Zero Trust is designed for internal use and not external users signing up for an application.
Hi @Cyb3r-Jok3 it is an application for only internal use / users.
(internal tooling), no sign-up required.
Gotcha. The only thing I can offer is the tests they do with cloudflared tests access tokens but not sure if that is what you need

Thanks. It looks like for local development I'll just need to "pretend" to authenticate as a specific user (and not use JWTs), or take a "real" JWT and ignore the expiration / signature locally 🙂
