What are the acceptable JSON formats?

Answer

When creating a new search collection for an app or store, you can import your data in a JSON format. Examples of acceptable JSON are mentioned below.

Nested JSON is not supported.

One record:

{
  "id": "123",
  "attrib":"value"
}

One record with list:

{
  "id": "123",
  "attrib":"value",
  "list":["item1","item2","item3"]
}

Multiple records:

[
  {
  "id": "1",
  "attrib":"value1"
  },
  {
  "id": "2",
  "attrib":"value2"
  }
]

Multiple records with list:

Note that if a schema field is a list, a record can have a single value either with or without square brackets. Both formats are acceptable and will be indexed.
