Let’s say you have a dictionary named ‘a’.

Convert Dictionary to JSON in Python
In order to convert a dictionary to JSON, you can use the json.dumps()
method.
# Import JSON module
import json
# A dictionary named 'a'
a = {
"Name": "Meat Pizza",
"Price": "$12",
"Size": "Regular",
"Crust Type": "Deep Dish"
}
# Convert dictionary named 'a' to JSON
print(json.dumps(a, indent = 4))
# {
# "Name": "Meat Pizza",
# "Price": "$12",
# "Size": "Regular",
# "Crust Type": "Deep Dish"
# }
Note: The json.dumps()
method functions by converting Python objects to JSON string.
