This tool allows you to compare json objects and visualize the semantic differences.
You can see the user guide to help you to use this JSON compare tool.
This tool allows to compare two JSON data structures, and visualize the diff.
Copy and paste, drag and drop a JSON file or directly type in the editors above, and they will be automatically compared if the two JSON are valids.
You can also click on "load JSON from URL" button to load your JSON data from a URL (Must be https).
You can also click on "Browse JSON file" button to load your JSON data from a local file.
You can also directly compare two JSON files by specifying their urls in the GET parameters url1 and url2.
Example: https://extendsclass.com/json-diff.html?url1=https://extendsclass.com/mock/rest/3b3aea6de65f5bd7576a1079bf9b6ec5/sample1.json&url2=https://extendsclass.com/mock/rest/3b3aea6de65f5bd7576a1079bf9b6ec5/sample2.json
Then you can visualize the differences between the two JSON documents. It highlights the elements which are different:
You can navigate to next / previous difference:
The last editor exclusively contains the diff between JSON. When a property differs, the difference contains the value of the first json.
JSON is an standard file format that uses human-readable text to transmit data objects. JSON was derived from JavaScript, but it is a language-independent data format, many programming languages include code to parse JSON data. JSON substitutes for XML, it has become a popular alternative to XML format. Once you know json, it is difficult to return to XML (personal opinion ...)!
Sometimes it is necessary to validate the response bodies of REST API (this type of webservice has become very popular). It can be complicated when the json are bulky, it quickly becomes difficult to read.
Another solution to validate a JSON response, is to use a JSON schema (See the tool "JSON Schema Validator"). It may be relevant to use json schema to validate an API.
It can be helpful to compare JSON streams, unfortunately it can be difficult to see the differences between large documents. This free online tool will allows you to do this easily.
JSON diff tool makes a semantic comparison, it compares every attribute–value pairs of objects. It compares each element according to their position in the arrays. It sorts and formats the JSON strings in order to find the semantic differences instead of just the text ones.
This tool is currently in beta and we would welcome your feedback, you can make comments.

Similar tools online don't handle alignment very well once they are missing a row on one side or the other.
I sort of agree with "your mom" comment about a checkbox to ignore when values are different, but technically, you already solved that issue by using two colors.
Tell your mom to ignore the red highlighting if she doesn't care when the values are different.
One added plus would be if you could expand the result windows to be taller or resizable - large JSON files make for a lot of scrolling.
Thank you for your work, and for sharing the tool.

JSON 1: {"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3, "d": 4, "e": 5, "f": 6}
JSON 2: {"a": 1, "b": 2, "d": 4, "e": 5, "z": 0}
Output: {"c": 3, "f": 6, "z": 0}
Thank you!

Is there any chance that it can be converted to jar, so that I just have to send the json and it will compare the two jsons and renders the Diff URL..?
