World's Simplest JSON Tool

Free online JSON validator and linter. Just load your JSON in the input field and it will automatically get validated. It can't get any easier than this! Created for developers by developers from team Browserling.

What Is a JSON Validator?

This tool validates the given JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) object, checks if there are syntax errors in it and if there are, it reports them in the output area. Validating a JSON is also often called linting. As JSON files are often created manually, it often leads to accidental errors such as missing commas, mismatched quotes, or incorrect data types. This tool can detect such errors and precisely indicate their locations. When the program detects an error, it displays a red notification on the screen. If the JSON file is correct and there are no syntax errors, the program displays a green notification on the screen, confirming the given JSON is valid. Json-abulous!

JSON Validator Examples

Valid JSON

In this example, we load a simple JSON file to check its validity. Since the file has correct JSON syntax and structure, the program determines it's a valid JSON and displays a green badge in the output area.

{ "fruits": ["apple", "banana"] }

Incorrect JSON Quotes

In this example, we run our linter on a JSON data structure containing an error, resulting in a red error badge. The error is located on the second line and involves the use of single quotes instead of double quotes.

{ "fruits": ['apple', 'banana'] }
SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 2 column 14 of the JSON data

Missing Closing Bracket

In this example, we use our JSON validation program to identify another common error. The closing curly brace "}" is missing on line 9, which should close the "wind" object. This skipped curly brace messes up the JSON structure and it's no longer syntactically valid. Fortunately, this error can be easily corrected once it is identified.

{ "city": "New York", "temperature": 18, "conditions": "Partly Cloudy", "wind": { "speed": 10, "direction": "North" }
SyntaxError: JSON.parse: end of data after property value in object at line 9 column 2 of the JSON data
