Frequently Asked Questions

Does this tool verify the JWT signature?

No. This tool only decodes and displays the token contents. Signature verification requires the secret key and is not performed here.

Is my token sent to a server?

No. All decoding happens locally in your browser. Your token never leaves your device.

What is a JWT?

A JSON Web Token (JWT) is a compact token used to represent claims between parties. It consists of a Base64URL-encoded Header, Payload, and Signature separated by dots.
