    "params": {
      "name": "json_comparer",

  }'

Input schema

Argument	Type	Required	Description
left	string	yes	The original JSON document (text).
right	string	yes	The changed JSON document (text).
sort_keys	boolean	no	Sort object keys recursively before formatting, so key order does not show as a change. Default: false. Default: false.

Example arguments (verified)

{
  "left": {
    "a": 1,
    "b": 2
  },
  "right": {
    "a": 1,
    "b": 3
  }
}

Arguments that carry JSON as a string are shown decoded for readability. The Copy button copies the exact wire arguments.
