Remove Escape Characters from JSON

Updated: Oct 24, 2017

Remove escape characters from JSON (unescape) to get back the original string. Reserved characters hold special meaning in the JSON format. These characters need to be escaped (or encoded) inside JSON strings. This online tool reverses the escaping process (decodes) and returns the original string.

See Substitutions for more information.
