About this JSON Validator

JSON Validator checks whether your input is valid JSON by attempting to parse it. If parsing fails, it reports the parser error so you can fix the first issue quickly.

This is useful when working with API payloads, configs, and logs. The validator targets strict JSON (no comments, no trailing commas).

FAQ

Is my text uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Nothing you paste is sent to a server.

Can I use this tool offline?

After the page loads once, it will typically keep working offline (unless you hard refresh with no cache).

Do you store my input?

No. Your input stays in your browser. Only optional preferences like theme or language may be stored.

What input formats are supported?

Any plain text. You can paste text directly into the input box.

Why do I only see one error?

JSON parsers stop at the first syntax error. Fix the first error and validate again to find any additional issues.

Does this support JSON5 (comments or trailing commas)?

No. This tool validates strict JSON. Comments and trailing commas are not valid JSON and will cause errors.

Will this upload my JSON anywhere?

No. Validation runs locally in your browser and nothing is uploaded to a server.
