Frequently Asked Questions

What is a JSON Schema?

JSON Schema is a vocabulary that allows you to annotate and validate JSON documents. It describes the structure of your data, including types, required fields, and constraints.

How does the generator infer the schema?

The tool analyzes your JSON structure and infers types from the values—strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, and nested objects. It creates a schema that matches your sample data.

Can I use this schema for validation?

Yes! The generated schema follows JSON Schema draft 2020-12 specification and can be used with validation libraries to ensure incoming data matches the expected structure.

What if my JSON has optional fields?

The generator includes all properties found in your sample. For production use, you may want to edit the schema to mark certain fields as optional by adjusting the required array.

Does this site store my data in the cloud?

No, this site does not store or share your data in the cloud. Your data remains private and is kept locally on your broswer.
