▸ decodeJwt<PayloadType>(jwt): PayloadType & JWTPayload
Decodes a signed JSON Web Token payload. This does not validate the JWT Claims Set types or
values. This does not validate the JWS Signature. For a proper Signed JWT Claims Set validation
and JWS signature verification use jose.jwtVerify(). For an encrypted JWT Claims Set validation
and JWE decryption use jose.jwtDecrypt().
This function is exported (as a named export) from the main 'jose' module entry point as well
as from its subpath export 'jose/jwt/decode'.
