About this tool

The ShishwaLab JSON Validator checks whether text is valid JSON and reports parse errors with line and column when the engine provides a position.

On success it summarizes root type, top-level keys or array length, and input size so you can sanity-check API payloads quickly.

Validation runs in your browser. Your JSON is not uploaded to ShishwaLab servers.

Tips for better results

  • Validate before formatting when you only need a syntax check.
  • Use the error line/column to jump to trailing commas, missing braces, or bad escapes.
  • Unicode and nested objects are supported via the browser JSON parser.
  • For pretty output after a pass, open the JSON Formatter.

How to use

  1. 1 Paste the JSON you want to check.
  2. 2 Click Validate to see pass/fail status and details.
  3. 3 Copy or download the input, or reset when finished.
