JSON Escape / Unescape

Escape and unescape JSON strings for safe transmission and storage.

Features

  • • JSON Escaping: Convert text to valid JSON string format
  • • JSON Unescaping: Parse JSON strings back to readable text
  • • Real-time Processing: Instant conversion as you type
  • • Error Handling: Clear error messages for invalid input
  • • Copy to Clipboard: Easy copying of processed results
  • • Unicode Support: Handles international characters

Quick Examples

JSON Processor

Common Use Cases

  • • API Development: Safely include user input in JSON responses
  • • Data Storage: Store text with special characters in databases
  • • Configuration Files: Handle user-provided strings in JSON configs
  • • Logging: Escape user input for safe logging
  • • Data Transmission: Prepare strings for JSON APIs

How It Works

Escaping: Uses JSON.stringify() to convert text to a valid JSON string, handling quotes, newlines, tabs, and other special characters.

Unescaping: Uses JSON.parse() to parse JSON strings back to their original text representation.

Safety: All processing happens in your browser - no data is sent to external servers.
