I would like to know if there is an API to convert Dwg to Json so that I can process in web application, not for rendering the CAD file.

Please, describre what you tried and what kind of researches you did before asking. Also, specify what kind of API you need, free or not, protocol type, etc. Seems there are some alternatives for online conversion and also paid conversion API. – Luiz Fernando da Silva Sep 13 '19 at 19:32

Here's a code sample with a plugin to extract data to JSON from drawings - that's part of a demo for the Forge Design Automation API (that's cloud base service/API for automation here though so not sure if this API itself fits the bill for you) but you can just use the plugins on your local installation alone if you want.
