How to Use
Paste the encoded JWT string into the input area or select a sample token.
Inspect the top banner to check whether the token is currently valid or expired.
Review formatted Header (algorithm) and Payload (user claims and permissions).
Copy clean JSON objects with the quick action buttons.
What Is This Tool?
A JSON Web Token (JWT, RFC 7519) is a compact, URL-safe means of representing claims to be transferred between two parties. It is widely used in stateless authentication across REST and GraphQL architectures.
Why It Matters
During OAuth and OpenID Connect development, quickly inspecting token roles, permissions, and lifetime avoids painful debugging cycles.
