JSON for Linked Data Community Group
JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linking Data) is a lightweight Linked Data format that gives your data context. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on the already successful JSON format and provides a way to help JSON data interoperate at Web-scale. If you are already familiar with JSON, writing JSON-LD is very easy. These properties make JSON-LD an ideal Linked Data interchange language for JavaScript environments, Web service, and unstructured databases such as CouchDB and MongoDB.

YAML-LD Final Report
Gregg Kellogg
Posted on:
December 12, 2023
The JSON for Linking Data Community Group has published the final report for
YAML-LD
. YAML-LD defines an API parallel to JSON-LD for describing data using
YAML (YAML Ain’t Markup Language)
. YAML-LD is fully consistent with JSON-LD and YAML-LD documents can be used with JSON-LD Contexts or visa-versa.
The JSON-LD CG expects that YAML-LD will be picked up by the JSON-LD Working Group for eventual publication as a W3C Recommendation.
Draft JSON-LD-star specification
Gregg Kellogg
Posted on:
February 18, 2021
The JSON for Linking Data Community Group has released the first draft of
JSON-LD-star
. This describes a mechanism for extending JSON-LD to support
RDF-star
graphs including extensions to the Expansion, Compaction, Flatting, From RDF, and To RDF algorithms.
JSON-LD-star allows both
annotations
and
embedded nodes
to represent statements about links in a linked data graph, similar to the way that Labeled-Property Graphs can have attributes on links.
For example:
"@context": {
"@base": "http://example.org/",
"@vocab": "http://example.org/"
},
"@id": "bob",
"age": {
"@value": 42,
"@annotation": {
"certainty": 0.8
Annotates the link “bob age 42” with “certainty 0.8”.
