How this JSON Compare works

This diff utility compares two JSON objects and highlights structural and value differences to help developers identify changes between versions. The tool parses both inputs, sorts keys for consistent comparison, and displays a side-by-side or unified view of additions, deletions, and modifications. Users can compare API responses, check configuration file drift, or verify data migration integrity. Features include syntax validation, automatic formatting for better readability, and color-coded highlighting to isolate changes quickly. Applications include debugging regression issues by comparing expected vs. actual JSON responses, auditing changes in CMS content, or merging JSON translation files.

How to Use

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the comparison work?

It parses both JSONs into objects and compares them semantically. Order of keys does not matter for equality.

What do the colors mean?

Green indicates added lines (present in the right JSON but not left), Red indicates removed lines (present in left but not right). Grey is unchanged.
