How to extract payload

I have created this function to extract the payload

async fetchPayload(token: string):Promise<object> {
    const data = await validateJwt(token, key, { isThrowing: false });
    return data.payload;
  },

but I am getting this error

TS2322 [ERROR]: Type 'Payload | undefined' is not assignable to type 'JwtObject | null'.
  Type 'undefined' is not assignable to type 'JwtObject | null'.
      return data.payload;

@timonson I think this is a really good implementation 👍 I would maybe change the validation type to the example below to always return the JwtObject in the jwt prop, but I think both ways have their pros and cons so I leave it to you:

type JwtValidation =
  | { jwt: JwtObject; isValid: true }
  | { jwt: string; isValid: false; isExpired: boolean; error: JwtError };

Hi, to answer your question above, yes I’m currently using isThrowing. Hope it helped.
