JSON to C# record
Paste JSON and get a C# 9+ positional record — immutable, with value equality and concise syntax. Nested objects become their own records.
JSON in, C# record out
Paste a typical JSON payload and the tool emits idiomatic C# record types — nested objects each become their own type.
{
"id": 1,
"name": "Alice",
"isActive": true
}Generated C# record appears here.
What you'll use this for
Skip the boilerplate. Whenever you have an example JSON payload and need typed code on the other side, paste and generate.
API client models
Generate DTOs for a third-party REST API from a sample response.
Database row types
Model JSON columns or document-store records as native C# record types.
Mobile + backend parity
Keep client and server types in sync — both generated from the same JSON.
Fixtures and tests
Turn fixture JSON into typed code for unit tests and integration mocks.
How to convert JSON to C# record
Paste your JSON
Drop a valid JSON object into the left editor. Arrays at the root work too — the first element is sampled.
Pick a class name
Default is Root. Use anything PascalCase that fits your domain.
Click Generate
Or leave auto-generate on for live updates as you edit JSON. Runs entirely in your browser.
Copy or download
Copy to clipboard or save as a .cs file ready to drop into your project.
Frequently asked questions
Records were introduced in C# 9 (.NET 5). Positional records, used here, work in C# 9+.
Yes — record parameters are init-only by default. Use the with expression for non-destructive mutation.
Yes. Each nested JSON object becomes its own positional record.
Yes. Completely free, no signup, no limits. Runs entirely in your browser.
About JSON to C# record
This tool converts a sample JSON payload into idiomatic C# record code. Every nested object is recursively turned into its own type with PascalCase naming, while keys are converted to the conventional case for the language.
Type inference
- Strings stay strings.
- Integers use the language's widest safe integer type (e.g.
long,Int,i64). - Decimals become double-precision floats.
- Arrays become a generic list keyed off the first element's type.
- Booleans map to the native boolean type.
- Nested objects recurse into their own type definitions.
Privacy
- All conversion happens locally in your browser.
- No JSON ever leaves your device.
- No signup, no tracking of payloads.
