To convert object to string in JavaScript we use the inbuilt function JSON.stringify(). This function takes object as an input parameter and returns string equivalent of the given object.
Example:
// Convert object to string using JSON.stringify() method let obj = { 'name': 'John', 'age': 23, 'gender': 'Male' } str_obj = JSON.stringify(obj) console.log('Type of obj: ',typeof(obj)) console.log('Type of str_obj: ',typeof(str_obj))
Output:
Type of obj: object
Type of str_obj: string
As you can see from above output, the type of variable obj is an object and the type of variable str_obj is string.
We use JSON.stringify() when we send data to web servers.
