How to use the JSON Validator

  1. Paste your JSON.
  2. Read the result: valid JSON shows stats, invalid JSON shows the line and column of the problem.
  3. Format or minify the JSON and copy it.

Frequently asked questions

What are the most common JSON errors?

Trailing commas, single quotes instead of double quotes, unquoted keys, and comments, none of which JSON allows.

Does it follow the JSON standard?

Yes. It uses the browser's strict JSON parser, which follows RFC 8259.

Is my data private?

Yes. Validation runs in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.
