# Function: compactVerify
[💗 Help the project](https://github.com/sponsors/panva)
â–¸ **compactVerify**(`jws`, `key`, `options?`): `Promise`<[`CompactVerifyResult`](../interfaces/types.CompactVerifyResult.md)\>
Verifies the signature and format of and afterwards decodes the Compact JWS.
**`example`** Usage
```js
const jws =
'eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NiJ9.SXTigJlzIGEgZGFuZ2Vyb3VzIGJ1c2luZXNzLCBGcm9kbywgZ29pbmcgb3V0IHlvdXIgZG9vci4.kkAs_gPPxWMI3rHuVlxHaTPfDWDoqdI8jSvuSmqV-8IHIWXg9mcAeC9ggV-45ZHRbiRJ3obUIFo1rHphPA5URg'
const { payload, protectedHeader } = await jose.compactVerify(jws, publicKey)
console.log(protectedHeader)
console.log(new TextDecoder().decode(payload))
```
#### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `jws` | `string` \| `Uint8Array` | Compact JWS. |
