Correct option:
header, payload, and signature delimited by dots(.)
Explanation:
A JSON Web Token (JWT) consists of three parts:
- Header: Contains metadata about the token, such as the signing algorithm.
- Payload: Contains the claims or the data that is being transmitted.
- Signature: Ensures the integrity of the token and verifies that it was not tampered with.
These three parts are separated by dots (.
) in the JWT format, i.e., header.payload.signature.
The other options (footer and signature or footer and header) are incorrect.
