What happens when JSON becomes YAML
Hugbúnað form
YAML is indentation-sensitive structured text that may include comments, anchors, and tags.
Hvaða breytingar
Records and values are parsed from JSON and serialized using YAML syntax and data types.
- Hvað er beint
- Data values and record relationships are preserved where JSON and YAML have equivalent types.
- What may be lost
- Comments, key order, formatting, formulas, styles, namespaces, or type annotations may be lost when YAML cannot represent them.
- Codec and quality implications
- This is a structural conversion rather than a visual quality setting; verify types, delimiters, encodings, and row counts in the output.
- Realistic limitations
- Malformed syntax, mixed encodings, unsupported nesting, or values outside the target type range can prevent an accurate conversion.
Konversion stefnu
- Upload a JSON file no larger than 1 GB.
- Confirm that YAML is selected as the target.
- Start the conversion. A healthy compatible worker begins processing immediately.
- Download the YAML file and check the result before deleting your source.
Óþykktun
- The JSON file is rejected or will not open.
- Confirm that the file is not empty, password-protected, or corrupt and that its real format matches the extension.
- The YAML file is larger than expected.
- Choose a more efficient codec or lower quality setting when available. Lossless and uncompressed targets are often larger by design.
