JSON Helper is an agent which allows you to do useful things with JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) directly from AppleScript. JSON Helper has no interface, and runs in the background waiting for AppleScripts to ask it to do something

With JSON Helper you can parse the JSON responses from web services directly into AppleScript records and lists - just give it the url.

You can also convert AppleScript records and lists into JSON. See our web page for a set of useful examples.
