What is a JWT token?

A JSON Web Token (JWT) is a compact, URL-safe format for transmitting claims between two parties. JWTs are widely used for authentication and authorization in web applications and APIs.

Every JWT has three parts separated by dots: the header (algorithm and token type), the payload (claims like user ID, expiration and permissions) and the signature (used to verify the token has not been tampered with).

How to use this tool

  1. Paste your JWT token in the input field.
  2. Click Decode to view the header and payload.
  3. The tool shows expiration status and formatted JSON for each part.
