Getting Started with JSONFlow

Format, Validate, and Transform JSON Data

Spin up your development environment in under three minutes. Generate your API credentials, configure your first pipeline, and push structured data to production without wrestling with edge cases.

Step 1

Account Setup & API Key Generation

JSONFlow uses token-based authentication to secure your data pipelines. Follow these steps to provision your workspace and generate your first API key.

Navigate to the developer portal and complete the verification flow with your work email. Once logged in, open Settings > API Credentials. Click "Generate New Key", assign it the `write:pipelines` and `read:schemas` scopes, and copy the 40-character token. Store it securely in your environment variables—treat it like a password.

Verify Workspace

Confirm your email domain to unlock team collaboration features and access the shared schema registry.

Configure Scopes

Limit key permissions to `transform:execute` for production environments to maintain strict least-privilege access.

Step 2

Make Your First API Call

Test your credentials by sending a raw JSON payload to the validation endpoint. JSONFlow will parse, lint, and return a normalized structure.

Use `curl` or your preferred HTTP client to hit `https://api.jsonflow.dev/v1/validate`. Attach your token to the `Authorization` header and pass your payload in the request body. The service responds with a `200 OK` status, a `flow_id`, and the transformed output within 150ms.

Example request payload: `{ "order_id": "TXN-88429", "items": [{"sku": "WD-SSD-1TB", "qty": 2}], "timestamp": "2024-05-14T09:30:00Z" }`. The engine automatically strips null fields, enforces ISO 8601 date formatting, and validates against your registered schema.
