Frequently Asked Questions

What is JSON escaping?

JSON escaping is the process of converting a JSON string into a format that can be safely embedded as a string within another JSON object. This involves adding backslashes to special characters like quotes and backslashes.

How does JSON unescaping work?

JSON unescaping reverses the escaping process. It removes the added backslashes to restore the original JSON string, making it ready to be parsed as a JSON object.

Is my data safe?
