Escape any text or JSON document into a valid JSON string literal. All special characters (newlines, quotes, backslashes, tabs) are correctly escaped for safe embedding.
JSON escaping is the process of converting raw text into a valid JSON string value by replacing special characters with their escape sequences. In JSON, double quotes must become \", newlines must become \n, tabs must become \t, and backslashes must become \\. Without proper escaping, embedding text that contains these characters in a JSON document will produce invalid JSON that parsers will reject.
Common scenarios where JSON escaping is needed include embedding a JSON document inside another JSON string value, storing multiline text in a JSON field, encoding special characters for use in JSON configuration files, and preparing strings for use in JSON-based APIs or databases. JSON Viewer Pro's online JSON escaper handles all of these cases automatically — paste your raw text, click Escape, and the output is a properly escaped JSON string literal ready to use anywhere.
The escaper wraps your input in double quotes and replaces all characters that have special meaning in JSON strings. This means the output is always a valid, embeddable JSON string value. The inverse operation — unescaping — is also available to convert an escaped JSON string literal back to its original readable form. Both operations run locally in your browser without sending any data to a server.
It means replacing characters like quotes, backslashes, and newlines with their JSON escape sequences so the string can be safely included in a JSON document.
Double quotes (→ \"), backslashes (→ \\), newlines (→ \n), carriage returns (→ \r), tabs (→ \t), and control characters.
Use the Unescape button to instantly convert a JSON string literal back to its original unescaped text.
