About this tool

When a configuration or API response changes, the difference is often buried in a long document. This tool compares two JSON documents recursively, key by key and index by index, and lists what was added, what was removed and what changed, with the path to each item. Either document being invalid JSON is reported with a clear error instead of a partial comparison.

Frequently asked questions

Does key order matter in the comparison?

No. Objects are compared by key name, so reordering keys alone produces no differences.

How are arrays compared?

By position: items at the same index are compared, and extra items at the end are listed as added or removed.
