How do I handle JWT expiration in my Vue.js app?

To handle JWT expiration in Vue.js, you can set up an interceptor in your Axios instance to check for token validity.

What should I do when the token is expired?

When the token is expired, you can redirect the user to the login page or refresh the token if you have a refresh token mechanism.

Can you show me an example of setting up an Axios interceptor?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

import axios from 'axios';

const axiosInstance = axios.create();

axiosInstance.interceptors.response.use(response => {
    return response;
}, error => {
    if (error.response.status === 401) {
        // Handle token expiration
        // Redirect to login or refresh token
    }
    return Promise.reject(error);
});

What if I don't have a refresh token?

If you don't have a refresh token, you'll need to log the user out and prompt them to log in again when the token expires.
