JWT Decoder

Paste any JSON Web Token (JWT) to instantly decode the header and payload. Standard claims such as exp, iat and iss are highlighted. Decoding never leaves your browser, so it is safe to use with sensitive tokens.

FAQ

Can this tool verify the signature?
Not yet. This tool decodes the token only. Verifying the signature requires the issuer's secret or public key, which is best handled by your backend library.
Is it safe to paste production tokens here?
Yes — decoding happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent over the network. Still, treat tokens as credentials and rotate any you have shared.
