What is Base64?
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It's commonly used to encode data for transmission over media that are designed to deal with textual data.
Common Uses
- • Email attachments (MIME)
- • Data URLs in web pages
- • API authentication tokens
- • Storing binary data in JSON
- • URL encoding for special characters
Character Set
Base64 uses 64 characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, and / (with = for padding).
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
0123456789+/
Padding
Base64 strings are padded with = characters to make the length a multiple of 4.
