Even if you get the ABL to decode this, you won’t have verified it so how can you trust the payload isn’t forged? If you are using .Net there is a dead simple control by Chilkat ( Jwt C# Reference Documentation ) that you can use to decode, validate, and create JWT tokens. If .Net isn’t your thing, there is a simple node.js package to do the same ( jwt ). If neither of those work for you and you are using PAS, Spring security can do all the heavy lifting and return a client principal to the ABL for easy handling, though the setup can be confusing the first time you do it.
