FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Can JSON with comments (// or /* */) be formatted?

A. Standard JSON does not support comments, so the input will fail validation. Remove the comments before pasting.

Q. What should I do when a validation error appears?

A. Common causes are missing commas, unclosed quotes, or trailing commas. Check your input for these issues.
