JSON Diff
Compare two JSON objects and list changed paths locally.
Compare two JSON objects
Spotting what changed between two JSON payloads — an API response before and after, two config versions — is painful by eye because formatting and key order get in the way. This tool compares two objects and lists exactly which paths changed.
A path-level diff cuts through the noise: instead of scanning braces, you see that user.role changed or a field was removed. Paste both objects and get a clear list of differences, ideal for debugging APIs and reviewing config edits.
Real changes, locally
It compares values by key rather than by formatting, so reordered or reindented JSON does not show as a change. Both payloads stay in your browser and are never uploaded.
