How to convert Swift structs to JSON Schema – step-by-step guide

This online Swift struct to JSON Schema converter helps you generate JSON Schema from real models (DTOs, structs, and classes) so you can validate payloads, share contracts, and generate mock JSON.

  1. Step 1 – Paste your Swift source

    • Paste the models you want to document into the left editor.
    • Include referenced types in the same snippet so the schema can generate definitions.
    • Use the Sample button to load an example and see the expected input format.
  2. Step 2 – Select the Root type (if needed)

    • If multiple definitions are detected, choose the root that matches your API payload.
    • The output schema is built around the selected root and may include additional definitions for referenced types.
  3. Step 3 – Review the JSON Schema output

    • Check types, required vs. optional fields, and nested object/array structures.
    • Look for definitions and $ref when your models reference other models.
    • Copy or download the schema for validation, documentation, or schema-first development.
  4. Step 4 – Validate or generate mock JSON

    • Click Generate Mock Data to open the mock generator with your schema preloaded.
    • Validate real payloads against your schema to catch breaking changes early.
    • If you rely on advanced schema composition (for example anyOf/oneOf/allOf), verify the result with a full validator like Ajv.

Schema keyword support note

Generated schemas can include $ref and may be edited to include anyOf, oneOf, or allOf. For complex schemas, use a full JSON Schema validator and dereference before mock generation if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Swift types are supported?

The tool parses structs and classes with stored properties. It handles optional types (String?), arrays, dictionaries, default values, Codable annotations like @CodingKey (ignored but safe), and nested types. Paste models directly from your Swift or SwiftUI project.

How are Swift types mapped to JSON Schema?

String/Int/Double/Bool map to schema primitives, arrays like [Address] become schema arrays, dictionaries map to objects, and optional types become optional fields. Unknown custom types fall back to strings unless another struct/class with that name exists in the input.

Can I include multiple structs?

Yes. Paste several related structs and choose the root type from the settings dropdown. Everything runs locally in your browser, so no source code is uploaded.

How do I create mock JSON data?

After generating the schema, click "Generate Mock Data" to open the Mock Generator with your schema preloaded. Configure locales, array counts, and optional fields to create sample payloads instantly.
