This tool is provided as-is for convenience. Output should be verified before use in any production or critical context.

Programmatic Access

JSON to Go Struct is also callable as a free HTTP JSON API at https://aidevhub.io/api/json-to-go/ — GET with query parameters or POST with a JSON body, no authentication, CORS enabled, 50 requests/day per IP. Responses return { ok, tool, result, meta }. 

curl -s -X POST https://aidevhub.io/api/json-to-go/ \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"json":"{\"id\":1,\"name\":\"Alice\"}","root_name":"User"}'

How to Use JSON to Go Struct

  1. 1

    Paste your JSON data

    Input a JSON object or array in the left panel. The tool instantly parses the structure and infers Go types: strings become string, integers become int, decimals become float64, booleans become bool, and null becomes interface{}.

  2. 2

    Configure struct options

    Set the root struct name (default: Root). Toggle omitempty to add ,omitempty to json tags. Enable pointer types for nested objects. Choose inline structs to embed nested types directly instead of creating separate named structs.

  3. 3

    Review generated Go structs

    The right panel shows idiomatic Go struct definitions with aligned fields and proper json tags. Nested JSON objects become separate named structs. Arrays of objects share a common struct type.

  4. 4

    Copy and use in your project

    Click Copy to copy the generated Go struct definitions. Paste them into your Go source file. The structs are ready to use with encoding/json for marshaling and unmarshaling JSON data.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is JSON to Go Struct?
JSON to Go Struct converts JSON data into idiomatic Go struct definitions with proper json tags. It handles nested objects, arrays, and null values automatically.
How do I use JSON to Go Struct?
Paste your JSON into the left panel. The tool instantly generates Go struct definitions in the right panel. You can configure the root struct name, toggle omitempty tags, enable pointers for nested objects, or inline structs.
Does JSON to Go store my data?
No. All conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your JSON data never leaves your device — nothing is sent to any server.
How does JSON to Go handle nested objects?
Nested JSON objects become separate named Go structs. Arrays of objects create a shared struct type. You can also enable inline structs to embed them directly.
What Go types does JSON to Go generate?
Strings map to string, integers to int, decimals to float64, booleans to bool, null to interface{} (or pointer types when enabled), and arrays to slices of the inferred element type.
