BloodHound JSON Formats

Data exported by SharpHound is stored in JSON files. There are eight seperate JSON files that provide different data. The structure is documented here

Basic JSON Format

All JSON files end with a meta tag that contains the number of objects in the file as well as the type of data in the file. The actual data is stored in an array with a key that matches the string in the meta tag.

{
    "users":[
        {
            "name": "ADMIN@TESTLAB.LOCAL"
        }
    ],
    "meta":{
        "type" : "users",
        "count": 1,
        "version": 3
    }
}

Possible types/meta tags are: * users * groups * ous * computers * gpos * domains
