How to Format JSON

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

What i’m trying to do, is for example

IN LUA

["Error"] = {
	Pass = "Error",
	Member = "Error++",
	Exp = "Infinite",
	Expire = {
		Month = 1,
		Day = 1
	}
},
["Error2"] = {
	Pass = "Error2",
	Member = "Error++",
	Exp = "Infinite",
	Expire = {
		Month = 1,
		Day = 1
	}
}

How to format this into JSON?

EDIT :

I’m trying to receive this data from an external website.

#2

Are you looking for HttpService:JSONEncode?

#3

No, Im using a external website to put that data in. then decoding it. but the flaw seems to be in my formatting.

#4

Can you elaborate by what you mean with “put that data in”? I mean, you should be able to encode a Lua table through :JSONEncode, and decode a JSON string through :JSONDecode. I currently don’t see how your formatting is going to cause an issue

#5

Alright, so i have a external website. i :HttpGet() the raw text,

Here’s how i tried formatting it.

{
	"Quuar" : [{
		"Pass" : "Quarrity",
		"Member" : "Owner++",
		"Exp" : "Infinite",
		"Expire" : [{
			"Month" : 12,
			"Day" : 31
		}]
	}],
	"24Promo" : [{
		"Pass" : "Fr33",
		"Member" : "Free",
		"Exp" : "6/4/2021",
		"Expire" : [{
			"Month" : 4,
			"Day" : 6
		}]
	}],
}

i get the raw text from a pastebin btw.

A website returns a JSON that got converted to a string, and if you want to reconvert it on roblox, use HttpsService:JSONDecode()

#8 
{
	"Quuar" : {
		"Pass" : "Quarrity",
		"Member" : "Owner++",
		"Exp" : "Infinite",
		"Expire" : {
			"Month" : 12,
			"Day" : 31
		}
	},
	"24Promo" : {
		"Pass" : "Fr33",
		"Member" : "Free",
		"Exp" : "6/4/2021",
		"Expire" : {
			"Month" : 4,
			"Day" : 6
		}
	},
}

You could simply use

local tbl = {}
print(game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONEncode(tbl))

in the command bar and copy the output.
