# basic_json::emplace_back
```cpp
template<class... Args>
reference emplace_back(Args&& ... args);
```
Creates a JSON value from the passed parameters `args` to the end of the JSON value. If the function is called on a JSON
`#!json null` value, an empty array is created before appending the value created from `args`.
## Template parameters
`Args`
: compatible types to create a `basic_json` object
## Parameters
`args` (in)
: arguments to forward to a constructor of `basic_json`
## Return value
reference to the inserted element
## Exceptions
Throws [`type_error.311`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error311) when called on a type other than JSON
array or `#!json null`; example: `"cannot use emplace_back() with number"`
## Complexity
Amortized constant.
## Examples
??? example
The example shows how `emplace_back()` can be used to add elements to a JSON array. Note how the `null` value was
silently converted to a JSON array.
```cpp
--8<-- "examples/emplace_back.cpp"
```
Output:
```json
--8<-- "examples/emplace_back.output"
```
