This repo contains a minimal example demonstrating:

1. Generating self-signed JWTs for Tinybird
2. Consuming Tinybird API Endpoints in a Next.js frontend app using a self-signed JWT

You can read more about JWTs in Tinybird in the documentation, and there is a full end-to-end guide covering this example.

• Node.js >= v18
• A free Tinybird account
• Deploy the Tinybird resources to a Tinybird Workspace

Install app dependencies. From the root of the repo:

pnpm install

First create a new file .env.local

cp .env.example .env.local

You need to copy your Tinybird host and token to the .env.local file in your directory:

TINYBIRD_SIGNING_TOKEN="YOUR SIGNING TOKEN" # Use your Admin Token as the signing token
TINYBIRD_WORKSPACE="YOUR WORKSPACE ID" # The UUID of your Workspace
NEXT_PUBLIC_TINYBIRD_HOST="YOUR API HOST. E.G. https://api.tinybird.co" # Your regional API host

Run it locally:

pnpm run dev

Then open http://localhost:3000 with your browser.
