I'm setting up an API in NodeJs and Express and I use JWT for authentication, which works really nice. The one thing I have not been able to figure out is how determine the exact date and time which associated with the IAT value. I know it's based on milliseconds, but I cannot relate this back to a date. The official JWT specification says:(https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7519#page-10)
4.1.6. "iat" (Issued At) Claim The "iat" (issued at) claim identifies the time at which the JWT was issued. This claim can be used to determine the age of the JWT. Its value MUST be a number containing a NumericDate value. Use of this claim is OPTIONAL.
For example:
"iat": 1479203274,
"exp": 1479205074,
Any ideas?
Thanks
