Markdown to JSON API

About Markdown to JSON API

Markdown to JSON is a hosted API that converts Markdown content into JSON output, letting developers parse documents without building a custom renderer or tokenizer. It accepts input as raw Markdown text, a Markdown file upload, or a URL pointing to a Markdown file, and returns results either as an inline JSON response or as a downloadable JSON file. URL-based requests require the remote resource to respond with text/markdown or text/plain, and file uploads must have MIME type text/markdown.

Depending on the endpoint used, the API returns a JSON array, a JSON object containing a signed S3 URL to the generated file (valid for 5 minutes), or a downloadable binary JSON file. It is suited for document processing pipelines that need to ingest docs, notes, README files, or CMS export content, storing parsed output, syncing content into internal tools, or passing it to downstream validation and transformation steps.

The API is published by ApyHub, versioned at 1.0.0, and exposes 9 POST endpoints for the different combinations of input source (raw text, file upload, URL) and output format (inline JSON, file, or signed URL).
