How to escape " in windows power shell

Question

It seems that back-slash doesn't work:

> echo "[{\"name\": \"oren\"}]" > input.json
> type .\input.json
[{\
name\: \oren\}]

This topic is already largely covered. Although it's nice to have the will to share infos, this is a duplicate — Cid, Sep 13 '22 at 08:34

According to this link:

The PowerShell escape character is the backtick "`" character

And indeed:

> echo "[{`"name`": `"oren`"}]" > input.json
> type .\input.json
[{"name": "oren"}]

Strangely enough, this info is not (easily?) found in the official docs
