Frequently Asked Questions
What does the validator check?
It parses the text with a strict JSON parser. If it parses, the JSON is valid and you get a short summary.
What does the error tell me?
It reports why parsing failed and where, such as a missing comma or an unquoted key, so you can fix it quickly.
What counts as valid JSON?
Double quoted keys and strings, no trailing commas, and no comments. The validator follows the strict JSON rules.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser, so the JSON you paste is never uploaded.
Is it free?
Yes. Every tool here is free to use with no sign up.
