JWT Decoder

Decode a JSON Web Token and read its header and payload. Decoding only — the signature is not verified. Enter your values and press the action button to see the result.

This tool only decodes. It never verifies the signature and never sends your token anywhere — but a JWT is still a credential, so avoid pasting production tokens into any website you do not control.

About JWT Decoder

Decode a JSON Web Token and read its header and payload. Press Decode to see the result in the results panel. Everything runs locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded. Only the current result is shown — no history or side-by-side comparison.

JWT Decoder reads “Paste your JWT” from the form above and writes the answer into the results panel — This tool only decodes. It never verifies the signature and never sends your token anywhere — but a JWT is still a credential, so avoid pasting production tokens into any website you do not control. There is no account, no upload and no server round-trip: the JavaScript on this page does the work on your own device.

  1. Open JWT Decoder from Text & Code, or find it with the search box in the header.
  2. Fill in the fields shown above: “Paste your JWT”.
  3. Press Decode. The result replaces whatever was shown before; only the current run is displayed, never two results side by side.

Frequently asked questions

Is what I type uploaded anywhere?

Can I keep several results to compare?

No. Each press of Decode rebuilds the result from the current inputs and overwrites the previous one. To compare runs, note the earlier result down yourself.
