About this tool

A JSON Web Token has three dot-separated Base64URL parts: header (algorithm), payload (claims) and signature. This decoder reveals the header and payload with human-readable iat/exp/nbf timestamps. Decoding is not verification — the signature can only be validated with the secret/public key on a server. Never paste production tokens anywhere you don't trust.

FAQ

Does decoding verify the token?

No — decoding just reads it. Verification requires the signing key and must happen server-side.

Is it safe to paste my token here?

Processing is local (no network), but treat tokens like passwords — use test tokens where possible.

What is the exp claim?

Expiry time as a Unix timestamp. Expired tokens must be rejected by the server.
