Recently wasted quite some time on figuring out why my Bearer token was invalid and truncated when checking it on the Network tab.

My suggestion is modify the display logic there to not truncate values for display when it is about Header (especially Authorization) values.

I agree with this. I spent nearly an hour trying to figure out why my bearer JWT wasn't working when copied/pasted, only to realize that Firefox is truncating the value with a "..." in the middle.

Yup this is annoying. and there is no setting currently to turn this behavior off. 
Had to switch to Chrome for development

Yes, this should be fixed. It's been already reported, see this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1696128

Hi!

Yeah this has come back again to be an issue. I am using the latest version 141.0 (64-bit), and while before I could copy the value to get the full JWT value, I can now no longer do that. 

This stackoverflow question pertains to how it was before (version 132.0.2), and the methods used to get the full JWT token. The methods may not be the best but they did work at least!

This screenshot here are of the current alternatives you can choose when you wish to copy the header; none of them lead to getting the full value out.

I see the bug is four years old, what's the current status? It would be lovely if this could be fixed so we do not have to use Chrome to get the full JWT Token value out!
