What is Base64?

Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents data using ASCII characters. It’s commonly used to safely transmit data in URLs, JSON, XML, emails, and APIs.

Common use cases

  • Encoding small payloads for APIs or configuration files
  • Decoding Base64 tokens for debugging
  • Converting text for transport where only text is allowed

Important notice

Base64 is not an encryption or security method. It is only an encoding format that can be decoded very easily by anyone. Never use Base64 to protect passwords, personal data or sensitive information.
