What common mistakes cause invalid JSON?

Trailing commas, single quotes instead of double quotes, and unquoted keys are the most common causes.

Is my JSON data uploaded anywhere?

No — validation uses your browser's native JSON parser and never sends data to a server.

Does this tell me exactly which character is wrong?

The error message comes directly from the browser's JSON parser, which typically includes a position or context clue.

Can I validate JSON with comments in it?

No — standard JSON does not support comments; a JSON-with-comments (JSONC) file would need comments removed first.

Does root type matter?

Valid JSON can have any value type — object, array, string, number, boolean or null — as its root; the validator reports whichever type yours has.

Is empty text valid JSON?

No — an empty string is not valid JSON; you'll see an error until at least a minimal valid value (like {} or []) is entered.

What Is a JSON Validator?

A JSON validator checks whether a block of text is syntactically valid JSON — correctly matched brackets and quotes, properly comma-separated values, no trailing commas — and reports exactly what's wrong if it isn't.

It's the fastest way to confirm a hand-edited config file or a suspicious API response is actually parseable, before spending time debugging code that assumes it is.

Consejos

Watch for Trailing Commas

A trailing comma after the last item in an object or array is a common cause of invalid JSON.

Use Double Quotes Only

JSON requires double quotes for strings and keys — single quotes are invalid.
