Validate JSON syntax, make it readable, and locate errors before an import or API call.
Before you start
Work on a copy or a controlled test when the change can affect production. Keep timestamps, screenshots and the previous configuration so the result can be compared.
Step by step
- Copy only the JSON to inspect and remove secrets or access tokens.
- Test it with the BAOI JSON Formatter & Validator.
- Fix the first reported issue: comma, quote, brace, or unexpected type.
- Validate again and compare the structure with the application or API schema.
- Keep a minified version only when the target system requires it.
Validation
Repeat the original test after the change and confirm that the expected service works without creating a new regression. Document the final state.
