CodeBeautifyString Escape / Unescape
Escape newlines, quotes, and special characters for embedding text in JSON or JavaScript source, or unescape it back to plain text.
Input
Output
Escaping converts newlines, tabs, quotes, and backslashes into their \n, \t, \"-style escape sequences, producing a value that can be safely embedded as a single-line JSON or JavaScript string literal.
Frequently asked questions
How do I escape a string for JSON online?
Paste the raw text into the input box and click Escape. The result is quoted and escaped exactly as it would appear as a JSON string value.
Can I unescape a string that already has surrounding quotes?
Yes — both a quoted string like "line1\\nline2" and an unquoted escaped fragment are accepted by Unescape.
