{{Mark|Updated with Version 9.0:}}
Before {{Version|9.0}}, the format was called {{Code|map}} (it has been renamed because the resulting value may also be a string, number, boolean, or an empty sequence).
{{Mark|Updated with Version 9.0:}}
→json:parse
=Conventions=
All functions and errors in this module are assigned to the <code><nowiki>http://basex.org/modules/json</nowiki></code> namespace, which is statically bound to the {{Code|json}} prefix.<br/>
The resulting representation consumes less memory than XML-based formats, and values can be directly accessed without conversion. Thus, it is recommendable for very large inputs and for efficient ad-hoc processing.

|-
| '''Summary'''
|Converts the JSON data specified by {{Code|$inputstring}} to an XQuery value. If the input can be successfully parsed, it can be serialized back to the original JSON representation. The {{Code|$options}} argument can be used to control the way the input is converted.
