Adding JSON-LD Structured Data

Adding JSON-LD Structured Data

February 25, 2026

We have added information on JSON-LD to the APIs (and more) page, and added examples code for DRUM and Dryad.

From the JSON-LD Wikipedia entry:

JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data) is a method of encoding linked data using JSON and of serializing data similarly to traditional JSON. It is meant to be simple to create by modifying JSON documents. JSON-LD is a World Wide Web Consortium Recommendation initially developed by the JSON for Linking Data Community Group, transferred to the RDF Working Group for review, improvement and standardization, and now maintained by the JSON-LD Working Group.

JSON-LD can be served as a standalone JSON-LD document or embedded in HTML, commonly as schema.org structured data. See Introduction to structured data markup in Google Search for information on embedding JSON-LD as structured data.
