JWT Decoder

Decode and analyze JSON Web Tokens (JWT). Inspect headers, payloads, expiration times, and understand token structure for authentication and security analysis.

Security Notice:

This tool only decodes JWT tokens client-side. Never paste sensitive production tokens. JWT signatures cannot be verified without the secret key.

About JWT Tokens:

Structure
  • Header: Token type and algorithm
  • Payload: Claims and user data
  • Signature: Verification signature
  • • Format: header.payload.signature
Common Claims
  • iss: Issuer of the token
  • sub: Subject (user identifier)
  • exp: Expiration time
  • iat: Issued at time

Security Note: JWTs are encoded, not encrypted. They can be decoded by anyone, so never include sensitive information in the payload.
