> As part of KNOX-2791, the following 3 enhancements were implemented:
>  * the JWT federation filter supports tokens coming from a cookie (in addition to previous mechanisms such as the Authorization header)
>  * A new REST API endpoint that populates certain user/group information in custom auth headers
>  * A new REST API endpoint that populates a token fetched from an environment variable as the Bearer token in the Authorization header.
> These enhancements should be documented in Knox's user-guide.
