It is explained on the website and it even has example json text.

Just download and extract one of the pre-made files e.g. persistence_ext4_512MB_persistence.dat.7z
If you still have problems tell us exactly how you made the persistence file, where you put it and what is in your json file and what happens when you select the iso.

"timeout": 10,

Don't edit ventoy.json manually. Delete it and use VentoyPlugson to generate it. It will check the json syntax、file existence and filename lower/upper case automatically.

Use F5 to check persistence configuration in Ventoy menu.
