Authenticating a Flask API Using JSON Web Tokens

In this video, I show you how to use JSON Web Tokens (JWT) to authenticate users of your API. First, a user will have to login using a specially created route which returns a token. Once a token is generated, it can be sent along with the rest of the request to other parts of your API to verify the user's identity without the user having to provide any additional login information. It's an easy way to verify the identity of users without making them go through the extra step of logging in every time they make a request.

Neat explanation. Everything straight to the point. Thanks a ton for sharing such quality tutorials! This helped me a lot in understanding jwt

Always use 401 for unauthenticated routes. 403 is forbidden logic, for example forbidden directory listing etc. Not related to authentication.
