ASP Core WebAPI, alternatives to JWT for auth?

Developing a simple CRUD api using ASP.Net Core.

Is jwt the only token based auth supported by default?

I don't think my app will gain any benefit from jwt. What bothers me about jwt is its size. Even with nothing but Id in it it is already quite hefty. Add roles and other info in there and it balloons a lot for little to no benefit.

Does asp core offer something similar but stateful and lighter on size?
