Hi @Chieh :wave:

It’s certainly possible! Here’s a working example:

Code

import streamlit as st
import json

data = {
    "employees": [
        {"name": "John Doe", "department": "Marketing", "place": "Remote"},
        {"name": "Jane Doe", "department": "Software Engineering", "place": "Remote"},
        {"name": "Don Joe", "department": "Software Engineering", "place": "Office"},
    ]
}

json_string = json.dumps(data)

st.json(json_string, expanded=True)

st.download_button(
    label="Download JSON",
    file_name="data.json",
    mime="application/json",
    data=json_string,
)

Output

download-json

Happy Streamlit-ing! :balloon:

hi @snehankekre

Thanks for your solution!!

Got it!!

I don’t know even if st.download_button can support receiving the data format from json.dumps().

Thanks for your demonstration.

Happy to help!

In such situations, I would encourage you to try to see if it works anyway! Even if it had failed, there’s something to be learned from it. :smile:
