    - `lookup_header_name` string — The name of the header to look for the JWE token.

  - `updated_at` integer — Unix epoch when the resource was last updated.
  - `consumer` object — If set, the plugin will activate only for requests where the specified has been authenticated. (Note that some plugins can not be restricted to consumers this way.). Leave unset for the plugin to activate regardless of the authenticated Consumer.

  - `consumer_group` object
    - `id` string
  - `route` object — If set, the plugin will only activate when receiving requests via the specified route. Leave unset for the plugin to activate regardless of the Route being used.
