We just released another version of our Azure Function JSON Schema Validation, adding support to another feature. In this case, a very basic one, required fields.
In order to specify the mandatory properties or elements, we need to use the required keyword, where you can specify a list of strings that need to be present as key names in the list of key:value pairs that appear in a JSON document. Each of these strings must be unique.
JSON Schema Validation Function
The JSON Schema Validation is a simple Azure Function that allows you to validate your JSON message against a JSON Schema, enabling you to specify constraints on the structure of instance data to ensure it meets the requirements.
The function receives a JSON payload with two properties:
- The JSON message in the json property.
- And the JSON Schema in the jsonSchema property.
Example:
{
"json": {
"city": "Porto",
"name": "Sandro"
},
"jsonSchema": {
"properties": {
"city": {
"type": "string"
},
"name": {
"type": "string",
"pattern":"^.*[a-zA-Z0-9]+.*$"
}
},
"type": "object",
"required": ["name"]
}
}
The function’s output will be:
- A 200 OK if the JSON message is valid.
- Or a 400 Bad Request if there are validation errors/issues.

Big thanks to my team members Luís Rigueira and Diogo Formosinho for testing and adding this new feature.
