Azure AD token 5 minutes behind

Viewed 50

I am using RS256 algorithm to generate Azure AD token.

When I decode the token in https://jwt.io/ The issued at is 5 minutes behind the time of request.

Requested time: 9:00:00 PM IST.

Issued at: 8:55:00 PM IST.

Little strange but why?

Thank you in advance!

I can't find documentation, but that's by design. To make sure that when some systems have some minor offsets of times, then tocen is still good for acceesing your app/env
