 The `to_json` filter serializes an object to a JSON string. In some cases, it may be necessary to format a JSON string for use with a webhook, as a parameter for command-line utilities or any number of other applications. This can be complicated in a template, especially when dealing with escaping special characters. Using the `to_json` filter, this is handled automatically.
 
-Similarly to the Python equivalent, the filter accepts an `ensure_ascii` parameter, defaulting to `True`. If `ensure_ascii` is `True`, the output is guaranteed to have all incoming non-ASCII characters escaped. If `ensure_ascii` is false, these characters will be output as-is.
+`to_json` also accepts boolean arguments for `pretty_print`, which will pretty print the JSON with a 2-space indent to make it more human-readable, and `sort_keys`, which will sort the keys of the JSON object, ensuring that the resulting string is consistent for the same input.
+
+If you need to generate JSON that will be used by a parser that lacks support for Unicode characters, you can add  `ensure_ascii=True` to have `to_json` generate Unicode escape sequences in strings.
 
 The `from_json` filter operates similarly, but in the other direction, de-serializing a JSON string back into an object.

-In this example, the special character '°' will be automatically escaped in order to produce valid JSON. The difference between the stringified object and the actual JSON is evident.
