What is CBOR ↔ JSON Converter / Viewer?

This tool converts JSON to CBOR and decodes CBOR back to JSON.

It is useful for WebAuthn, passkeys, IoT, compact binary APIs, debugging binary payloads, and interoperability testing.

How to use CBOR ↔ JSON Converter / Viewer

  1. Paste JSON and click Encode to convert it into CBOR.
  2. Paste Base64 or hex CBOR and click Decode to convert it into JSON.
  3. Use Auto-detect if you are not sure whether the input is JSON, Base64, or hex.
  4. Upload or download .cbor files when needed.

Tips

  • CBOR is a binary format, so Base64 and hex are the most convenient text representations.
  • This tool is especially useful when debugging WebAuthn and passkey payloads.
  • Hex output helps compare binary payloads byte by byte.
  • If decoding fails, verify whether the input is really CBOR and whether the selected format is correct.
