hello, today i was doing some research in regards to how to use user roles present in a JWT(non-opaque) for validating user access to a specific resource using ORY Keto \w Oathkeeper.. I stumbled upon these

and so far it seems that the only solution is to manage roles within Keto. What if that is not an option? What if user roles are assigned one level above and present in the JWT? Any suggestion? :thinking_face:

as alternative, i could just use the "remote json/remote" authorizer of Oatkheeper and validate the JWT against..
