By default, the OIDC JWT is forwarded to the Kubernetes API server. In some cases it might not be possible to have the Kubernetes API server configured with OIDC, in these cases the OIDC JWT should be evaluated by Headlamp and the request should use the service account of the pod together with impersonating the user in the token.
