## About

## What it does
YAML to JSON Converter turns YAML into JSON from a raw request body, an uploaded file, or a public URL. You can receive the result inline, as a downloadable JSON file, or as a pre-signed S3 URL.

Use it when your app needs to ingest YAML config, migration data, or partner files and hand back JSON to another service. Send raw YAML in `content`, or provide a YAML `file` upload, or pass a public `url` to a YAML document. For URL- and file-based flows, you can also set the optional `output` query parameter to name the generated artifact.

The inline endpoints return parsed JSON as an object or array. The file endpoints return a downloadable JSON file. The URL endpoints return a `data` field containing a pre-signed S3 URL that points to the converted JSON file and expires after 5 minutes.

YAML to JSON Converter is a fit for build pipelines, content ingestion, and backend tooling where you need a predictable JSON form of YAML without writing your own parser.
