Use JSON file in Gephi

Question

I have a json file containing network data that I'd like to visualize using a network visualization software like Gephi. But Gephi does not accept this type of files. Is there a way to convert the json file or are there any other network visualization softwares out there that can? I am a Mac user.

Answer 1

You need to use networkx in Python, construct your graph and Export your graph in a format that Gephi can load such as gexfor graphml. See the link for examples of the supported formats. Apparently R is an option, too, provided that igraph has a json reader
