How to format JSON
Paste JSON, choose Format JSON, then copy the indented result. Use Minify when you need compact JSON for transport or storage.
Formatting and validation
The formatter parses the input before producing output, so syntax errors are reported instead of silently changing invalid data.
Frequently asked questions
Does formatting change my data?
No. Formatting changes whitespace and indentation, not JSON values.
Can I minify JSON?
Yes. The Minify action removes unnecessary whitespace.
