+## Differences with JSON documents
+
+Indexing JSON documents is similar to hash indexing, but there are some
+important differences. JSON allows much richer data modelling with nested fields, so
+you must supply a [path]({{< relref "/develop/data-types/json/path" >}}) in the schema
+to identify each field you want to index. However, you can declare a short alias for each
+of these paths (using the `As` option) to avoid typing it in full for
+every query. Also, you must set `OnJSON` to `true` when you create the index.
+
+The code below shows these differences, but the index is otherwise very similar to
+the one created previously for hashes:
+
+```go
+_, err = rdb.FTCreate(ctx,
+    "vector_json_idx",
+    &redis.FTCreateOptions{
+        OnJSON: true,
+        Prefix: []any{"jdoc:"},
+    },
+    &redis.FieldSchema{
+        FieldName: "$.content",
+        As:        "content",
+        FieldType: redis.SearchFieldTypeText,
+    },
+    &redis.FieldSchema{
+        FieldName: "$.genre",
+        As:        "genre",
+        FieldType: redis.SearchFieldTypeTag,
+    },
+    &redis.FieldSchema{
+        FieldName: "$.embedding",
+        As:        "embedding",
+        FieldType: redis.SearchFieldTypeVector,
+        VectorArgs: &redis.FTVectorArgs{
+            HNSWOptions: &redis.FTHNSWOptions{
+                Dim:            384,
+                DistanceMetric: "L2",
+                Type:           "FLOAT32",
+            },
+        },
+    },
+).Result()
+```
+
+Use [`JSONSet()`]({{< relref "/commands/json.set" >}}) to add the data
+instead of [`HSet()`]({{< relref "/commands/hset" >}}). The maps
+that specify the fields have the same structure as the ones used for `HSet()`.
+
+An important difference with JSON indexing is that the vectors are
+specified using lists instead of binary strings. The loop below is similar
+to the one used previously to add the hash data, but it doesn't use the
+`floatsToBytes()` function to encode the `float32` array.
+
+```go
+for i, emb := range embeddings {
+    _, err = rdb.JSONSet(ctx,
+        fmt.Sprintf("jdoc:%v", i),
+        "$",
+        map[string]any{
+            "content":   sentences[i],
+            "genre":     tags[i],
+            "embedding": emb.ToFloat32(),
+        },
+    ).Result()
+
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The query is almost identical to the one for the hash documents. This
+demonstrates how the right choice of aliases for the JSON paths can
+save you having to write complex queries. An important thing to notice
+is that the vector parameter for the query is still specified as a
+binary string (using the `floatsToBytes()` method), even though the data for
+the `embedding` field of the JSON was specified as an array.
+
+```go
+jsonQueryEmbedding, err := hf.Embed(ctx, []string{
+    "That is a happy person",
+})
+
+if err != nil {
+    panic(err)
+}
+
+jsonBuffer := floatsToBytes(jsonQueryEmbedding[0].ToFloat32())
+
+jsonResults, err := rdb.FTSearchWithArgs(ctx,
+    "vector_json_idx",
+    "*=>[KNN 3 @embedding $vec AS vector_distance]",
+    &redis.FTSearchOptions{
+        Return: []redis.FTSearchReturn{
+            {FieldName: "vector_distance"},
+            {FieldName: "content"},
+        },

+        Params: map[string]any{
+            "vec": jsonBuffer,
+        },
+    },
+).Result()
+```
+
+Apart from the `jdoc:` prefixes for the keys, the result from the JSON
+query is the same as for hash:
+
+```

+every query. Also, you must specify `IndexType.JSON` when you create the index.
+
+The code below shows these differences, but the index is otherwise very similar to
+the one created previously for hashes:
+
+```py
+schema = (
+    TextField("$.content", as_name="content"),
+    TagField("$.genre", as_name="genre"),
+    VectorField(
+        "$.embedding", "HNSW", {

+    schema,
+    definition=IndexDefinition(
+        prefix=["jdoc:"], index_type=IndexType.JSON
+    )
+)
+```
+
+Use [`json().set()`]({{< relref "/commands/json.set" >}}) to add the data
+instead of [`hset()`]({{< relref "/commands/hset" >}}). The dictionaries
+that specify the fields have the same structure as the ones used for `hset()`
+but `json().set()` receives them in a positional argument instead of 
+the `mapping` keyword argument.
+
+An important difference with JSON indexing is that the vectors are
+specified using lists instead of binary strings. Generate the list
+using the `tolist()` method instead of `tobytes()` as you would with a
+hash.
+
+```py
+content = "That is a very happy person"
+
+r.json().set("jdoc:0", Path.root_path(), {
+    "content": content,
+    "genre": "persons",
+    "embedding": model.encode(content).astype(np.float32).tolist(),
+})
+
+content = "That is a happy dog"

+    "content": content,
+    "genre": "pets",
+    "embedding": model.encode(content).astype(np.float32).tolist(),
+})
+
+content = "Today is a sunny day"
