Frequently Asked Questions (3)

Q: What information can I see in a JWT?

A: JWTs contain header (algorithm, type), payload (claims like user ID, expiration), and signature. This tool shows all readable parts of the token.

Q: Is it safe to decode JWTs online?

A: Our tool decodes tokens locally in your browser - no data is sent to servers. However, never paste production tokens containing sensitive data into any online tool.

Q: Why can't I see the signature content?

A: The signature is encrypted and used for verification only. You can see signature algorithm info, but the actual signature content is not human-readable.
