It allows the server to generate a token containing user data, which can be used for authentication and API security. To generate a JWT token in Node.js, you typically use the jsonwebtoken package. The process involves creating a payload, signing it with a secret key, and setting an expiration time. This token is then sent to the client and used for secure requests.
