I am trying to append to a list in json file please see below example.

filename = websites.json

{"id": "json_key", "website": ["amazon.com", "facebook.com", "google.com"]}

For example, I want to add another website to the "website" list using user input and sort them by alphabetical order.

Ex.
user input: quora.com

Output:
{"id": "json_key", "website": ["amazon.com", "facebook.com", "google.com", "quora.com"]}

Is it possible?

Sure. Json load the file, modify the object, Json write the file again. – Patrick Artner Jul 08 '20 at 14:59
how to modify the object I've only seen here the appending of another key value but not appending to an existing list. – pork_sinigang Jul 08 '20 at 15:10
You load the file into an object, then modifiy the object, then write the modified object into a new/the same file. – Patrick Artner Jul 08 '20 at 15:17
