Use cases

Developer exposing Odoo data through a custom API

Situation
An external API needs Odoo data in JSON format, but every model requires its own serialization logic, and writing that by hand for each model does not scale.
How we solve it
Uses JSONifier's universal model serialization and export template builder to define reusable templates with field mapping for any Odoo model, without custom code per model.

Data engineer standardizing exports across an OCA-based Odoo installation

Situation
The company already relies on several OCA (Odoo Community Association) modules and wants export tooling that fits the same ecosystem instead of a standalone proprietary tool.
How we solve it
Adopts JSONifier, which is built on OCA's server-tools and is OCA compatible, to generate JSON exports for data lakes and external integrations using the same conventions as the rest of the OCA stack.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is OCA and why does it matter here?

OCA (Odoo Community Association) maintains a large set of open, community-supported Odoo modules. JSONifier is based on OCA's server-tools, so it follows the same conventions as other OCA modules.

Can it serialize any Odoo model, or only specific ones?

It provides universal model serialization, meaning it can be applied to any Odoo model rather than a fixed list.

Does this work with Odoo 18?

Yes, JSONifier is built for Odoo 18.

Is there a cost to use this module?

No, it is a free module.

How do I define what gets exported?

The export template builder lets you define templates with field mapping, controlling exactly which fields are included in the JSON output.
