would the N/crypto and N/crpyto/certificate be able to perform sign without a digital certificate? my use case is to create a JWT signature (already have the Private Key) so that i can use it for Oauth2 authentication

in general the only asymmetric encryption available in suitescript is N/crypto/certificate

thank you for the response. i am trying to get my MapReduce script to get authenticated and get an access token from Google Cloud Platform, ultimately to be used call google drive apis. have you worked on something like this or do you know a good reference that may help me?

there are a bunch of different ways to authenticate with google apis

for the mean time, i got a library for JWT signing to work, this way i dont need a digital cert, i struggled on the x.509 compliance, but would be nice to know how.

still need to determine how you are authenticating, or at the very least which signing algorithm you need to use
