Cannot resolve symbol 'security' while importing io.jsonwebtoken.security.Keys;


I was trying to build a project about API authentication using JWT. I have installed the io.jsonwebtoken package with version 0.9.1 in order to do that.

My pom.xml

    </build>

</project>

While I'm trying to import "io.jsonwebtoken.security.Keys" I'm getting this error: "Cannot resolve symbol 'security'".

I tried 0.6.0 but still no luck.

How can I fix this? Thanks.


Solution

  • I have this configuration in my pom.xml. This worked for me. I removed the dependency as you have in the question and replaced it with below.

    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.jsonwebtoken</groupId>
        <artifactId>jjwt-impl</artifactId>
        <version>0.11.5</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.jsonwebtoken</groupId>
        <artifactId>jjwt-api</artifactId>
        <version>0.11.5</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.jsonwebtoken</groupId>
        <artifactId>jjwt-jackson</artifactId>
        <version>0.11.5</version>
    </dependency>
    

    Edit: 27 Jan 2023

    Updated versions of the libs to the latest version 0.11.5 from earlier 0.11.1 in the answer.
