How to use the JSON To Typescript

  1. Paste your input - JSON, regex pattern, JWT, URL etc.
  2. Pick any flags or options the tool supports.
  3. Click the action button (Format, Test, Decode).
  4. Copy the result or download it as a file.

What you can do with the JSON To Typescript

  • Format and validate API responses while debugging.
  • Test regex patterns against real input before deploying.
  • Decode JWTs to inspect claims and expiry.
  • Generate UUIDs for migrations, tests and seeders.

How does the tool infer types from a JSON sample?
The generator walks the JSON, picks the narrowest matching TypeScript type for each value, and bubbles up object types with named interfaces. Arrays become typed arrays based on element shape, and unions are produced when an array contains mixed types. The result is a set of interfaces you can paste straight into a .ts file with no manual editing for typical payloads.
What if my sample does not include every possible field?
The generator only sees the fields present in the sample, so optional or rare fields will be missing or marked as required when they should not be. Provide a representative sample that includes nullable values and edge cases, or merge several samples before generating. After generation, mark fields optional with a question mark and add union types where needed to handle missing data.
Why are some properties typed as any?
Empty arrays, null values without context, and explicitly null fields produce any because there is no element from which to infer a type. Replace the placeholder null with a representative value before generating, or hand-edit the resulting type to a more specific union like string or null. Avoiding any in production code prevents runtime surprises that the compiler would otherwise catch.
Should I prefer interfaces or type aliases for the output?
Interfaces are extensible through declaration merging and are idiomatic for object shapes. Type aliases are needed for unions, intersections, and primitive aliases. The generator typically uses interfaces for object types and type aliases for unions, which matches community style. Either works for plain object data - the choice mostly affects how easily downstream code can extend the shape.
How are nested objects handled - inline or as separate interfaces?
Most tools extract nested objects into named interfaces, especially when the same shape appears more than once. This produces clean, reusable types and makes errors point at meaningful names instead of inline structures. For deeply nested one-off shapes, inline definitions are sometimes acceptable, but reusable interfaces scale better as the API grows.
Are the generated types runtime-safe?
No. TypeScript types are erased at compile time, so they cannot validate data at runtime. If a server returns something different from what the type claims, your code may crash silently. For runtime validation pair the generated types with a library like Zod, io-ts, or runtypes, or generate from JSON Schema and use a JSON Schema validator at the boundary.
