How it works
How to use the JSON to String
Paste JSON
Any valid (or invalid) text works.
Pick options
With or without surrounding quotes.
Copy the string
It is ready to embed.
How it works
The converter escapes every character that is special inside a JSON string: double quotes become \", backslashes \\, and line breaks \n. The result is identical to JSON.stringify.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
