Test the login endpoint
The login endpoint returns two fields: access_token and token_type. The access_token is a long encoded string — your JWT. The token_type is always "bearer", which tells the client how to send the token in future requests.
The token looks like random text, but it is actually three base64-encoded sections separated by dots. You can paste it at jwt.io to see the payload — the email address and expiration time are inside.
