About
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, language-independent data exchange format derived from JavaScript and used to structure and transmit data between systems.
It represents data as key-value pairs and ordered arrays, supports various data types, and is widely used in web APIs, configuration files, and data storage.
SearchAction is a structured data type from Schema.org that describes a website's search capability.
Before November 2024, it was used by Google to enable the "Sitelinks Search Box" feature, which displayed a search bar for a website directly within the search results snippet. However, since Google deprecated this feature, there is no evidence that other search engines or apps currently support it.
