Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Convert a JSON object to a string by using the SerializeObject component in RPA Desktop Design Studio.

## Before you begin

Role required: none

## About this task

To configure the properties for the SerializeObject component, see [Properties of the JSON utilities](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/jT4FMzbGGyn6M2VhStaJVg "Learn about the properties of the JSON utilities in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").

## Procedure

1. In the Toolbox pane, navigate to UtilitiesJSON.
2. Drag the SerializeObject component to the Design surface.
3. To configure the input fields, see [Configure port properties](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ED3jBpqtlHH8p~yFFmyRBQ "Configure how data is passed to the input fields of a component or method in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").
4. **Optional:** Connect the data and control ports of the SerializeObject component to the corresponding ports of the other components as described in the following table.  
   {#use-utilities-json-serializeobject__table_jnw_jn1_krb__entry__4}

   | Port type | Port name | Data type | Description |
   |-|-|-|-|
   | Data In | ObjData | Object | The JSON object to be converted to a string. |
   | Data Out | Return | String | Returns a JSON string which is representation of given object. |

   {#use-utilities-json-serializeobject__table_jnw_jn1_krb}
5. **Optional:** To test the component, right-click the component bar and then click Run From Here.

## Convert employee data from JSON object format to string {#use-utilities-json-serializeobject__example_dx5_wwz_f5b}

In this example, a JSON object contains the name, date of joining, and the salary of
an employee. The JSON object is created by using the SetProperties component. To
convert the JSON object to string, we use the SerializeObject component. After you
run the automation, point the mouse device over the Return
Data Out port of the SerializeObject component. The component displays the data as a
string.
