What is a JWT?

A JSON Web Token (JWT) is a compact, URL-safe token format used to securely transmit information between parties. It consists of three parts (header, payload and signature) separated by dots and is commonly used for authentication and authorisation in modern web applications and APIs.

Common use cases

  • User authentication (login sessions)
  • Authorisation and role-based access
  • API authentication (e.g. OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect)
  • Single Sign-On (SSO)
  • Sharing claims between services
  • Mobile and web application security
