Frequently Asked Questions about JWT Decoder
Everything you need to know about our process, pricing, and technical capabilities.
See Full FAQJWT (JSON Web Token) is a compact, URL-safe means of representing claims between two parties. It consists of three parts: header, payload, and signature, each separated by dots.
This tool validates the token structure and format, but cannot verify the cryptographic signature as that would require the secret key used to sign the token.
Yes! All processing is done locally in your browser. No token data is ever sent to any server or stored anywhere.
You can view the decoded header (including algorithm type), payload claims (such as issuer, subject, expiration), and the signature portion of your token.
Yes, the tool automatically checks the expiration claim (exp) if present in your token and shows whether the token has expired.
