About JWT

JSON Web Tokens (JWT) are an open standard (RFC 7519) for securely transmitting information between parties as a JSON object.

Structure: JWT consists of three parts separated by dots (.)

  • Header: Token type and signing algorithm
  • Payload: Claims (data about the user/token)
  • Signature: Ensures the token hasn't been tampered with

Common Claims:

  • iss (issuer), sub (subject), aud (audience)
  • exp (expiration time), iat (issued at), nbf (not before)
