# Authenticate with JWT

## Authenticate a user with JWT

<mark style="color:green;">`POST`</mark> `/api.moojo.id/user/authenticate`

If the user is already authenticated in your agent or application, you can use their JWT to authenticate them with **moojoᴵᴰ** as well. This ensures that the user is seamlessly connected to their universal identity, along with any previously collected data.
