JSON to Deterministic CBOR
Encode one ordinary JSON value as RFC 8949 deterministic CBOR. Return exact bytes in a canonical Base64 application/cbor carrier and both byte lengths. Text spelling and own map keys are preserved; no Unicode normalization. Finite numbers only; negative zero and unpaired surrogates refused. Maximum 65536 JSON/CBOR bytes, 8192 parsing events and depth 64. No tag invention, storage or upstream API.

How to buy with x402
- Send the request without payment. The server answers
402 Payment Requiredwith a base64 JSONPAYMENT-REQUIREDheader holding the amount, asset, network and payee. - Have your wallet sign an EIP-3009
transferWithAuthorizationfor exactly those terms (an x402 client library does this for you). - Repeat the identical request with the signed payload in the
PAYMENT-SIGNATUREheader. - The server verifies, runs the operation, settles, and returns
200with the result and aPAYMENT-RESPONSEheader carrying the settlement receipt.
Read the price without paying
curl --include --request POST --header 'accept: application/json' --header 'content-type: application/json' --data-raw '{"value":{"a":1,"b":[true,null,"café"]}}' --url 'https://market.561.group/v1/data/cbor-json-encode'
This request authorizes nothing; it returns the live payment terms. Read the full explanation of x402.
