OAuth PKCE Generator — Create Secure Code Verifiers and Challenges

Generate RFC 7636 PKCE code verifier and challenge pairs for OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow. Choose verifier length, get the SHA-256 code challenge, and see exactly where each value goes in the auth URL and token exchange request.

How to Use OAuth PKCE Generator — Create Secure Code Verifiers and Challenges

How to Use the OAuth PKCE Generator

Step 1: Set Verifier Length

Adjust the slider to choose a code verifier length between 43 and 128 characters. RFC 7636 requires at least 43 characters — 64 is a safe default for most use cases.

Step 2: Generate

Click Generate PKCE Pair. The tool instantly computes:

  • code_verifier — a cryptographically random string from the URL-safe unreserved character set (A-Z a-z 0-9 - . _ ~)
  • code_challenge — BASE64URL(SHA-256(code_verifier))
  • code_challenge_method — always S256

Step 3: Use in Your OAuth Flow

Authorization request — add these query parameters to your authorization URL:

code_challenge=<value> code_challenge_method=S256

Token exchange — include in the POST body:

code_verifier=<value>

Step 4: Copy

Use individual copy buttons next to each field, or click Copy All to get all three values as key=value pairs.

Security Notes

  • Never include the code_verifier in the authorization URL — it must only be sent at token exchange
  • Generate a fresh PKCE pair for every authorization request
  • Store the code_verifier in session storage or memory, not in cookies or URL params
