+3. `excluded-urls` (optional) : Comma-separated list of paths to be excluded from the filter.

+    - If `/path/` (with trailing slash) is listed, only the paths under it are excluded.
 
 It is expected that the JWT is using the standard `Authorization` header with the format `Bearer theJwtTokenHere`
