Summary
Clarifies Managed OAuth behavior based on customer feedback and internal engineering review.
Changes
Managed OAuth page (
managed-oauth.mdx):Linked App Token known limitations (
linked-app-token-known-limitations.mdx):Cf-Access-Tokento downstream apps. Documents the proxy pattern (origin readsCf-Access-Jwt-Assertionand forwards) and points to multi-domain apps as an alternative.Context
A customer built a custom Go OAuth client for CLI access to their Access-protected internal tools and hit several points of confusion that the current docs don't address: opaque vs JWT token format, how tokens work across multiple domains, and how to tune session settings to minimize re-authentication prompts. These doc updates address those gaps for all customers.
