Originally created by @alexcupertme on GitHub (Sep 28, 2024).

Describe the problem

Netbird not presenting strict conditions how can group be named, so when you try to fetch groups from JWT token using JWT Claim functionality, it doesn't parse groups named like "Developer" et cetera...

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Prerequisites:
Zitadel as IdP and Netbird, v.0.29.4

Add Authorization to the user with role key "EXAMPLE"
Try to connect to the Netbird via Desktop application and authorize
Group didnt assigned

If we try "example" as role key, it works perfectly

Expected behavior

At least this behavior should be noted in the documentation

@nazarewk I can confirm this issue still exists in the current version.

As soon as there is one capital letter in the group name, it is ignored by netbird.

@mrll are we talking about Cloud or self-hosted?
As far as I know we were parsing Groups off JWT tokent for only a short time and abandoned the idea on behalf of the "IdP Sync" feature in the Cloud offering.

Unless I'm missing something I don't think this is expected to work at all.

Some input on this, I can attest the current version works with groups having capitalized letters :

also @nazarewk will the IdP Sync functionnality trickle down to the open-source version at one point or is JWT Token parsing here to stay?
