A little question : How can I add a string or an Int with this form : "id" : "my_number"
Because I can't add a simple " when I create my JSON file

1. Numbers shouldn't be enclosed with quotes.
2. It doesn't sound like you are building the json string correctly.
3. You should post a small example of the string that you are trying to create.

B4X:

Sub Create_JSON_File
    Dim JSONGenerator As JSONGenerator
     Dim json_str As String
    Dim data As List
    data.Initialize

    json_str = "os_name :Ios"
    data.Add(json_str)
    json_str = "os_version: 6.4.64"
    data.Add(json_str)

    JSONGenerator.Initialize2(data)
    Msgbox(JSONGenerator.ToPrettyString(2), "")
End Sub

I try this only for checking if it work

Everything I wrote in post #5 is still correct. I will also add that you should never use Msgbox. Use Log instead.

Please post the json string output that you want to create.

I have this

B4X:

[
  "os_name :Ios",
  "os_version: 6.4.64",
]

and I would like this

B4X:

[
  "os_name" :"Ios",
  "os_version": 6.4.64,
]

This is not a valid json string. There are three mistakes in it.

I guess that you meant:

B4X:

 JSONGenerator.Initialize(CreateMap("os_name": "Ios", "os_version": "6.4.64"))
Log(JSONGenerator.ToPrettyString(2), "")
