This only decodes the token's contents — it does not verify the signature. A decoded token is not proof it's authentic or untampered.

A JSON Web Token has three parts separated by dots: a header, a payload, and a signature. The header and payload are just Base64-encoded JSON, readable by anyone — this tool decodes those two parts so you can inspect their contents.
