Practical tips
When an API response arrives as one unreadable line, formatting it makes the structure obvious: nested objects, arrays and missing commas become easy to spot. If the validator reports an error, look just before the position it names, because a stray trailing comma or an unquoted key is usually the real cause. Minify the data again before sending it, to keep requests small.
