How to use JWT Encoder / Signer

  2. Type or paste the header and payload JSON.
  3. Click Encode JWT.
  4. Copy the signed token.

JWT Encoder / Signer అంటే ఏమిటి?

Useful for testing API endpoints that expect signed JWTs. The signing happens in-browser via the Web Crypto API's HMAC subtle.sign call. For RS256/ES256 (asymmetric) signing, you'd need a separate key management flow — those aren't supported yet.

FAQ

Is my secret sent anywhere?
No — all signing is local via Web Crypto. The secret stays in memory.
Does it support RS256 / ES256?
Not yet — only HMAC variants. RSA / ECDSA require private-key management.
