A Base64 string can be invalid if it contains characters outside the allowed alphabet (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /), has incorrect padding (=), or has a length that isn't a multiple of 4 (for standard Base64).
The Validator will tell you exactly what is wrong. If you need it automatically fixed, use our 'Base64 Repair Tool' which can add missing padding and strip illegal characters.
