I am trying to translate this C# .NET 6.0 code to run on .NET 4.8. I am trying to get a token using a RSA private key pem file. But I didn’t succeed.

Please, can someone help me ?

I have a problem with the ImportRSAPrivateKey method. It doesn’t exist in .NET 4.8. How can I change this ImportRSAPrivateKey method ?

It is an important method but Is there any other package in .NET 4.8 that can help to change this method?
