JSON

What is JSON?

JSON stands for JavaScript Notation. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language. It is a lightweight text-based open standard used for data interchange, so it is easy for humans to read and even write it. It is also easy for machines to parse and generate.

The JSON format is often used for serializing and transmitting structured data over a network connection. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and web application, serving as an alternative to XML.

Example JSON document

As explained before, it’s another user-friendly document type, easy to read and work with (even easier for those familiar with JAVA Script)

Getting started with Babelway

1. Select JSON as the message type

2. Upload a sample file

3. Babelway will do the rest

Babelway breaks down each object and structures the files into a useable manner. This gives you the ability to manipulate the data for easy transformation into other files types. When using JSON files, you can easily integrate your data with the file types of your partners. Since JSON’s uses are so wide, the possibilities for data exchange within your system are great.
