What is JWT Decoder?

Inspect the Base64URL-encoded header and payload of a JSON Web Token locally. Decoding does not prove that a token is authentic or trusted.

How to Use JWT Decoder

  1. 1Paste a JWT.
  2. 2Run JWT Decoder.
  3. 3Inspect the header and payload; verify signatures separately in your trusted application.
Data Privacy & Security Guarantee

When you use JWT Decoder, all input processing is executed completely inside your Web browser memory via client-side JavaScript. Your text and files are never stored, logged, or sent to backend databases.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does decoding a JWT verify it?

No. Anyone can decode a JWT payload. Trust requires cryptographic signature verification with the expected key and algorithm.
