JSON Resource Model

The JSON resource model supports the information type JSON.

The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) information type is a data encoding format very similar to XML. It is based on the JavaScript language which makes it easy for JavaScript programs to import and export data. It is useful for applications that require data interchange using the JSON model such as Ajax based web applications and it can be used as a general purpose exchange format within NetKernel. An example application architecture uses JavaScript in a browser, JavaScript in NetKernel and exchanges information between the two using JSON.

The primary services include:
