Solution skill
attributeerror: module 'jwt' has no attribute 'decode'
Complete solution
When it applies
Use when Python code imports jwt and the decode attribute is missing at call time, after an install, an upgrade, or a move to a new environment. The symptom is an import or attribute problem, before any claim is checked.
Print the file and version the jwt import actually loads, from the same environment that runs the failing code.
List the installed distributions that provide a jwt module and remove the wrong one if two are installed.
Reinstall PyJWT into that environment and re-run the import check.
Update the call for PyJWT 2.x by passing the algorithms argument explicitly, for example decode with the token value, the key, and the expected algorithm list, plus audience or issuer checks if your API uses them.
If your code shadows the library with a local jwt.py or jwt folder, rename that file or folder.
