JSON sorting is the process of reordering data within JSON structures for better organization and readability.
Our tool handles two main types of sorting: array sorting (reordering items within arrays based on field values) and key sorting (reordering object properties alphabetically).
The tool automatically detects data types and applies appropriate sorting logic - numbers sort numerically, dates chronologically, strings alphabetically, and booleans logically.
For nested structures, you can use dot notation to access deep fields (e.g., 'user.profile.name'), making it possible to sort complex JSON data structures precisely as needed.
Not validating JSON before sorting
Always ensure your JSON is valid before attempting to sort. Use the built-in validator to catch syntax errors early.
Choosing wrong data type for sorting
Use 'Auto-detect' for best results, or manually specify the correct type (number, string, date, boolean) for accurate sorting.
Ignoring case sensitivity options
Use case-insensitive sorting for consistent results when sorting text, but case-sensitive when capitalization matters.
Not analyzing structure first
Always click 'Analyze Structure' to understand your JSON before sorting - it shows available arrays and sortable fields.
Forgetting about nested fields
Use dot notation (e.g., 'user.name') to sort by nested object fields for more precise data organization.
You can sort JSON arrays containing objects with any field types - numbers, strings, dates, booleans, and even nested objects. The tool automatically detects data types and applies appropriate sorting logic.
Yes! You can sort by nested fields using dot notation (e.g., 'user.profile.name' or 'data.createdDate'). The tool will access nested properties and sort based on their values.
The tool automatically detects common date formats including ISO 8601 dates (YYYY-MM-DD), timestamps, and other standard date formats. Dates are sorted chronologically regardless of their string format.
Sorting arrays reorders the items within an array based on field values. Sorting keys reorders the property names within objects alphabetically. You can do both independently or together.
Absolutely! All JSON processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is ever sent to our servers, ensuring your information remains completely private and secure.
Yes! The tool can sort all arrays in your JSON file simultaneously. Each array will be sorted according to your selected field and options, making it perfect for complex JSON structures.
