What is JSON Web Token?

JSON Web Token (JWT) is a compact, URL-safe means of representing claims to be transferred between two parties. The claims in a JWT are encoded as a JSON object that is used to securely transmit information, for example, for authentication and authorization. It is commonly used to share security information such as user authentication details for applications.
