| [JsonUtility](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/mpe/eventdataserialization/jsonutility.md)   | Use [JsonUtility.ToJson](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/jsonutility/tojson.md) to serialize a message argument. Additional metadata is added to the message to specify which type to convert the JSON to when it is received. |
| [StandardJson](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/mpe/eventdataserialization/standardjson.md) | Use normal JSON to send a message using the \[\[EventService]. The receiving handler gets JSON objects (Dictionary\<string, object>, List\\\<object\\>, primitive types) as arguments of his ChannelHandler.                               |
