JSON ↔ String

Convert JSON to escaped string and back

About this tool

Turn a JSON into an escaped string (with quotes and backslashes) and back again. Useful when you need to embed a JSON inside another JSON, in code or in a text field.

Instead of escaping quotes by hand, paste the content and switch between the two forms. Processing happens in the browser.

How to use

Choose the direction (JSON to string or string to JSON).
Paste the content into the text area.
Convert and copy the result.
