JSON Patch operation runner online

Apply add, remove, replace and test JSON Patch operations. Use this when inspecting structured input or preparing a data or code artifact. Generated commands and configurations remain text until you review and use them yourself.

How to use it

Paste JSON matching the structure in the example. Supply patch operation array in the second input. Choose Run tool. Review the output, then copy or download it.

Worked examples

Use this when inspecting structured input or preparing a data or code artifact. Generated commands and configurations remain text until you review and use them yourself.

Reproducible worked example

Settings: No additional settings.

Input:

{"a":1,"b":[10,20]}

Patch operation array:
[{"op":"replace","path":"/a","value":5},{"op":"add","path":"/b/-","value":30}]

With the input and settings above, the tool produces:

Output:

{
  "a": 5,
  "b": [
    10,
    20,
    30
  ]
}

For this input, “a” is 5. These are the named fields in the example output.

Choose the right tool

This implements the documented add, remove, replace and test subset. It does not claim support for every JSON Patch operation. Use JSON Merge Patch Applier for RFC 7396-style object merging.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Supports add/remove/replace/test. Move and copy operations are intentionally rejected.
  • Combined input is bounded to 150,000 characters; output text is bounded to 1.2 million characters. Some algorithms impose smaller limits, stated in their error messages.
  • Both inputs must follow their own documented format. Changing direction or mode can require different input; the example is for the displayed settings.
