It appears under the hood the google authentication system is supported by Okta. Here are the descriptions of those values from their documentation:

JTI is a unique identifier for this access token for debugging and revocation purposes. Type: String

kid identifies the public-key used to sign the access_token. The corresponding public-key can be found via the JWKS in the discovery document. Type: String

I don't know why google doesn't have it listed in their documentation, but this should be what you need.
