JSON to Go Struct Converter — With Correct JSON Tags

Paste JSON to generate matching Go structs — exported field names converted to Go's PascalCase convention, correct types inferred, and the json: struct tags added automatically so the struct actually unmarshals the original field names correctly with encoding/json.

How to use JSON to Go

  1. Paste your JSON.
  2. Review the generated Go struct with json: tags.
  3. Copy it into your project.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the struct need json: tags?
Go's encoding/json package matches JSON keys to struct fields by name, but exported Go fields must be PascalCase — the json:"originalName" tag preserves the mapping back to your actual JSON field names, which are often camelCase or snake_case.
Does it handle nested JSON objects?
Yes — nested objects generate their own named struct type referenced from the parent struct.
What about JSON fields with null values?
Fields that can be null are typically generated as pointer types so the zero value and an explicit null/absent value are distinguishable.
