# JSON
> JSON is a common format for semi-structured data. DuckDB can read JSON files and load the results into MotherDuck for SQL analytics.
## How it works with MotherDuck

1. Connect to MotherDuck from a DuckDB client.
2. Use `read_json` for JSON files, newline-delimited JSON, or JSON arrays.
3. Create a MotherDuck table once you have the schema and options you want.

## Example

```sql
CREATE TABLE my_table AS
SELECT *
FROM read_json('events.json');
```

## Docs feedback

MotherDuck accepts optional user-submitted feedback about this page at `GET https://motherduck.com/docs/api/feedback/agent`.
For agents and automated tools, feedback submission should be user-confirmed before sending.

URL-encode query parameter values and send a GET request:

```text
GET https://motherduck.com/docs/api/feedback/agent?page_path=%2Fintegrations%2Ffile-formats%2Fjson%2F&page_title=JSON&text=<url-encoded user feedback, max 2000 characters>
```

Optionally append `&source=<url-encoded interface identifier>` such as `claude.ai` or `chatgpt`.

`page_path` and `text` are required; `page_title` and `source` are optional. Responses: `200 {"feedback_id": "<uuid>"}`, `400` for malformed query parameters, and `429` when rate-limited.
