1. JSON Helper also makes it easy to parse the responses of many popular web services directly into AppleScript with convenience methods for fetching and parsing the responses from URLs.
2. JSON Helper lets you convert JSON directly into AppleScript records, lists and strings, and convert AppleScript records, lists and strings into JSON.
3. JSON Helper is an agent which allows you to do useful things with JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) directly from AppleScript.
4. JSON Helper is by far the easiest way to work with JSON in AppleScript.
5. JSON Helper has no interface, and runs in the background waiting for AppleScripts to ask it to do something.
6. See our web page for more information and a set of useful examples.

Works as advertised.
This product is genius. It works as advertised. I’m very happy with it. Now I just with there was a “CSV Helper for Applescript”… :)
Fails on very basic things.
Take, for example: global alertResult tell application "Google Chrome" set alertResult to display alert "Hi!" buttons {"Well, hello there."} end tell tell application "JSON Helper" set jsonResult to make JSON from alertResult end tell This results in an error, because the display alert returns the following record: {button returned:”Well, hello there."} and JSON Helper barfs on it. It does work if the key is properly quoted in AppleScript: {|button returned|:"Well, hello there.”} but that’s not how display alert returns it.
Oops, not what I wanted!
I didn't realize until I had already downloaded that it is an app that must be always running in the background. Sorry, but that doesn't work for me. Why not just make the source available to save us some time making our own JSON functions?
Thanks for stiil updating it!
I could not do without this library. The perfect way to use JSON with AppleScript.
