Python/cryptography: ValueError: Could not deserialize key data
0
I am trying to encoded a JWT payload using "RS256", but I'm getting ValueError: Could not deserialize key data. error from the cryptography library.
import jwt
private_key = b'-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----nMIGEAgEAMBAGByqGSM49AgEGBS...'
public_key = b'-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----nMHYwEAYHKoZIzj0CAQYFK4EEAC...'
encoded = jwt.encode({'some': 'payload'}, private_key, algorithm='RS256')
But I'm getting the following error.
