What is a JSON Formatter?
A JSON formatter (also called a JSON beautifier or JSON pretty printer) takes raw, compressed JSON data and reformats it with proper indentation and line breaks, making it easy to read and understand.
How to Use
- Paste your JSON into the left panel
- Click Format JSON or it formats automatically as you type
- Copy the formatted output from the right panel
- Use Minify to compress JSON back to one line
Common Use Cases
- Debugging API responses from REST or GraphQL endpoints
- Reading configuration files (.json)
- Inspecting database exports and data feeds
- Validating JSON syntax before deployment
