## JSHandle.jsonValue() method

<b>Signature:</b>

```typescript
jsonValue<T = unknown>(): Promise<T>;
```
<b>Returns:</b>

Promise&lt;T&gt;

Returns a JSON representation of the object.If the object has a `toJSON` function, it will not be called.

## Remarks

The JSON is generated by running [JSON.stringify](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify) on the object in page and consequent [JSON.parse](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/parse) in puppeteer. \*\*NOTE\*\* The method throws if the referenced object is not stringifiable.
