Is there any way we can use RSA for signing refresh tokens instead of HS256?

Thanks

    I suggest using RSA instead of HS256.  With RSA you can confirm the the
    authenticity of the JWT by using Keycloak's public key.  The url
    https://<keycloak-server>/auth/realms/<realm>
    contains a json response with the public key.
