In Auth0, you cannot directly convert an access token into a JWT token because an access token is already a JWT token. However, if you want to verify and decode the access token, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Auth0 Dashboard and log in.
  2. Navigate to the "APIs" section and select the API that corresponds to the access token you want to decode.
  3. Copy the access token you want to decode.
  4. Go to a JWT token decoding website or use a JWT decoding library to decode the access token. Some popular decoding websites are jwt.io and jwt.ms.
  5. Paste the access token into the decoding tool and inspect the decoded information.


This will help you understand the contents of the access token and verify its authenticity. Remember that access tokens have a shorter lifespan and are used to grant access to specific resources, while JWT tokens typically have a longer lifespan and are used for authentication and authorization purposes.
