summary:
# JSON type representation [JSON](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/JSON) is a convenient and widely used format for serializing objects, arrays, numbers, strings, booleans, and null. [JSON does not support all data types allowed by JavaScript](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON#javascript_and_json_differences), which means that JavaScript objects that use these incompatible types cannot be directly serialized to JSON. The _JSON type representation_ of a JSON-incompatible object is an equivalent JavaScript object with properties encoded such that the information _can_ be serialized to JSON. This typically has the same properties as the original object for compatible data types, while incompatible properties are converted/serialized to compatible types. For example, buffer properties in the original object might be [base64url](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Base64)-encoded to strings in the JSON-type representation. An object that cannot automatically be serialized to JSON using the [`JSON.stringify()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify) method can define an instance method named `toJSON()` that returns the _JSON-type representation_ of the original object. [`JSON.stringify()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify) will then use `toJSON()` to get the object to stringify, instead of the original object. [`PublicKeyCredential.toJSON()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/PublicKeyCredential/toJSON) and [`Performance.toJSON()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Performance/toJSON) are examples of this approach. A JSON string serialized in this way can be deserialized back to the _JSON-type representation_ object using [`JSON.parse()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/parse). It is common to provide a converter method, such as [`PublicKeyCredential.parseCreationOptionsFromJSON()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/PublicKeyCredential/parseCreationOptionsFromJSON_static "PublicKeyCredential.parseCreationOptionsFromJSON\(\)"), to convert the _JSON-type representation_ back
