JSON File Help

 Hello all,

 

I am trying to create a new .json file for my Power BI Theme. My theme was working until I entered in the "Grid" and "columnHeaders" below. Can someone tell me where I am running into errors? Below is the .json file info.

 

{
"background": "#FAFAFA",
"dataColors": [
"#0e3c54",
"#E68223",
"#5fada4",
"#eb534b",
"#facb18",
"#39414b",
"#4c7334",
"#858585"
],
"foreground": "#0e3c54",
"name": "WinField Analytics",
"tableAccent": "#CDD2D9",
"visualStyles": {
"*": {
"*": {
"*": [
{
"fontFamily": "Arial"
}
],
"legend": [
{
"showTitle": false
}
],
"grid":[
{
"outlineColor":{"solid":{"color":"#EB534B"}},
"gridVertical":true,
"gridVerticalColor":{"solid":{"color":"#2B3138"}},
"gridHorizontal":true,
"gridHorizontalColor":{"solid":{"color":"#39414B"}}
}
],
"columnHeaders":[
{
"fontColor":{"solid":{"color":"#ffffff"}},
"backColor":{"solid":{"color":"#39414B"}},
"fontFamily":"Arial"
}
],
}
}

"card": {
"*": {
"categoryLabels": [
{
"show": false
}
],
"labels": [
{
"fontSize": 28
}
]
}
},
"donutChart": {
"*": {
"labels": [
{
"show": false
}
],
"legend": [
{
"position": "RightCenter",
"show": true
}
]
}
},
"gauge": {
"*": {
"labels": [
{
"fontSize": 12
}
]
}
},
"multiRowCard": {
"*": {
"card": [
{
"barWeight": 5
}
],
"categoryLabels": [
{
"fontSize": 11
}
],
"dataLabels": [
{
"fontSize": 28
}
]
}
},
"pieChart": {
"*": {
"labels": [
{
"labelStyle": "Percent of total"
}
],
"legend": [
{
"position": "RightCenter",
"show": true
}
]
}
},
"slicer": {

}
]
}
}
}
}

It looks like the issue is the comma and brackets, just before 'card' - the comma should be after the brackets:

I pasted your JSON into here to validate it:

Note that I have not tested or validated that it will give you what you need, but it is at least valid JSON now.

That worked!

 

Thank you so much. I had been looking for a place to validate .json files. Greatly appreciated.
