 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) provides a lightweight, text-based syntax for structured data interchange. JSON represents data using objects, arrays, names, values, strings, numbers, booleans, and null values.
 +
 +JSON supports data exchange across programming languages, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:a:api|APIs]], message formats, configuration files, event payloads, reports, and implementation artifacts.
 +
 +JSON differs from [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:schema|schema]]. JSON provides a data-interchange syntax. A schema defines structure, permitted values, relationships, and constraints for a defined representation context. JSON Schema, when used, constrains JSON documents.
 +
 +JSON also differs from [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:semantic|semantics]]. JSON syntax alone does not establish domain meaning. JSON expresses semantic content when names, values, structures, schemas, vocabularies, rules, and traceability preserve defined domain meaning.

 +===== Definition =====
 +
 +//lightweight, text-based syntax for structured data interchange using objects, arrays, names, and values//
 +
 +===== Source =====
 +
 +ECMA-404 The JSON Data Interchange Syntax; specialized for use in the FX Demo Reference Architecture.
 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +JSON is a syntax, not a semantic model. A JSON document gains domain meaning from its schema, vocabulary, field definitions, type system, rules, API contract, report model, or other authoritative semantic source.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +A JSON trade message represents selected FX trade information as name-value pairs:
 +
 +<code json>
 +{
 +  "tradeIdentifier": "Trade-123",
 +  "currencyPair": "EUR/USD",
 +  "notionalAmount": 1000000,
 +  "tradeDate": "2026-07-07",
 +  "settlementDate": "2026-07-09"
 +}
 +</code>
 +
 +The JSON syntax represents the data. The associated schema, type system, conceptual model, and business rules define the meaning of ''tradeIdentifier'', ''currencyPair'', ''notionalAmount'', ''tradeDate'', and ''settlementDate''.
