# JWT
|
|
|
|
JSON Web Token (JWT) is an internet standard for creating access tokens based on JSON.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
from fastapi_users.authentication import JWTAuthentication
|
|
|
|
SECRET = "SECRET"
|
|
|
|
auth = JWTAuthentication(secret=SECRET, lifetime_seconds=3600)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As you can see, instantiation is quite simple. You just have to define a constant `SECRET` which is used to encode the token and the lifetime of token (in seconds).
|
|
|
|
## Authentication
|
|
|
|
This method expects that you provide a `Bearer` authentication with a valid JWT.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl http://localhost:9000/protected-route -H'Authorization: Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjoiOTIyMWZmYzktNjQwZi00MzcyLTg2ZDMtY2U2NDJjYmE1NjAzIiwiYXVkIjoiZmFzdGFwaS11c2VyczphdXRoIiwiZXhwIjoxNTcxNTA0MTkzfQ.M10bjOe45I5Ncu_uXvOmVV8QxnL-nZfcH96U90JaocI'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Next steps
|
|
|
|
We will now configure the main **FastAPI Users** object that will expose the [API router](../router.md).
