Blog post JSON example

Last updated 2026-05-20

When to use this

Use this shape for a blog feed, a single-article page, or a CMS-style content list. Each post has tags, reactions, and a userId so you can join it to /users or /comments.

Example JSON

A single blog post, as returned by /posts/1.

{
  "id": 1,
  "title": "His mother had always taught him",
  "body": "His mother had always taught him not to ever think of himself as better than others. He'd tried to live by this motto. He never looked down on those who were less fortunate or who had less money than him.",
  "tags": [
    "history",
    "american",
    "crime"
  ],
  "reactions": {
    "likes": 192,
    "dislikes": 25
  },
  "views": 305,
  "userId": 121
}

    }
  ],

Post with embedded author

Useful for a server-rendered article page that wants the author inline.

{
  "id": 1,
  "title": "His mother had always taught him",
  "body": "...",
  "tags": [
    "history",
    "american"
  ],
  "reactions": {
    "likes": 192,
    "dislikes": 25
  },
  "author": {
    "id": 121,
    "firstName": "Emily",
    "lastName": "Johnson",
    "image": "https://jsonexamples.com/image/100?text=User+121"
  }
}
