{ } How to use
- Paste the text you want to put inside a JSON string.
- Select Process, then copy the escaped text.
{ } How it works
JSON Escape works on the text you provide. Select Process ▸ and it runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server — then shows the result in the Output panel.
Input
- Text input — paste or type your input in the left panel (use Sample for an example)
Output
TXT text — copy or download it from the Output panel.
{ } Common uses
- Embed a snippet of code, HTML or a multi-line message in a JSON value by hand.
- Build a JSON string for a curl command or a config file without a syntax error.
- See exactly which characters in your text need escaping.
{ } Limitations
- The result is the inside of a JSON string — the surrounding quotes are not added, so you place them yourself.
- Non-ASCII characters are left as themselves rather than turned into \u escapes, which is valid JSON for any UTF-8 document.
{ } FAQ
Is my data uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser — your files never leave your device.
Can I process more than one file at once?
This tool works on one input at a time.
Is this tool free?
Yes — it’s completely free and needs no sign-up.
What gets escaped?
Backslashes, double quotes, and the control characters — newline becomes \n, tab \t, and anything else below a space becomes a \u escape.
