JSON Encode Online

Turn raw text into a valid JSON string literal, including the surrounding quotes and required escapes.

This is useful when you need a safe JSON string value to paste into payloads, fixtures, or config files.

Raw Text Input

Escapes added

Even text that looks like a number or boolean stays a string: entering 42 produces "42", and entering true produces "true".

Quotation marks within your text are escaped so they remain part of the string rather than ending it.

This tool encodes raw text into a JSON string value. For full objects and arrays, use the parser or formatter tools instead.
