JSON Schema in the wild: A missing required property

There are some issues that happen over and over again if you write JSON schemas with a plain text editor. You can often follow them in the Slack community for JSON Schema or at StackOverflow: a schema is modified and validation no longer works as before, but nobody notices at the time the schema was changed.

The good news is that the built-in JSON Schema analyzer in JSONBuddy can detect many of those issues while you are editing your schema in the JSON editor.

A while ago this happened to a user: a property was removed from the JSON Schema but was still present in the required keyword array. As a consequence, a lot of the JSON data was invalid.

Use an extraordinary JSON Schema editor

This cannot happen if you use JSONBuddy as your JSON Schema editor. The built-in schema analyzer reports the missing required property definition right when you edit your schema. Instead, you get the following warning:

Warning about a missing required property.

This and several other common issues are reported by the schema analyzer if you use JSONBuddy as your JSON Schema editor. This support when working with JSON Schema documents helps to save time and avoid extra work.
