[mitreid-connect] JWT Signatures - which public key?

Hi,

In our implementation, the RS upon receiving a request it first validates the access token signature locally before introspecting it. To perform the signature validation we use a previously retrieved public key. The issue we are facing is that in our case the <root>/jwk endpoint is returning multiple keys. How do we figure out which one should be used? Should we check the “use” field? If yes, is there a standard value to check for?

Regards,
Luiz
