Guide & Explanations

Online JWT Debugger

The JWT (JSON Web Token) debugger lets you inspect, decode and analyze any JWT token directly in your browser — without sending any data to a server. It is an essential tool for backend developers, DevOps engineers and security experts.

What is a JWT?

A JSON Web Token is an open standard (RFC 7519) that defines a compact, self-contained format for transmitting information between parties as a JSON object. It consists of three Base64URL-encoded parts separated by dots:

  1. Header: signing algorithm and token type
  2. Payload: claims (user information, dates, etc.)
  3. Signature: guarantees token integrity

Features

  • Live decoding: the token is analyzed on every keystroke
  • Status banner: valid, expired, not yet valid, or no expiration
  • Countdown timer: shows time remaining until expiry or since expiry
  • Claims summary: iss, sub, aud, iat, exp, nbf, jti, alg
  • Color-coded JSON: syntax highlighted for Header and Payload
  • Colored token parts: Header in red, Payload in purple, Signature in teal
