JSON Formatter lets you format and organize JSON data into a clear and readable structure. You can add your JSON by pasting the text directly into the input field or by selecting a .json file from your device.

For example, a compact JSON document can be transformed into a structured format that is easier to understand and work with:
Input
{"name":"John","age":30,"active":true}Formatted JSON
{
"name": "John",
"age": 30,
"active": true
}Check the example image below to see how JSON Formatter displays the formatted result. ↓
In addition to formatting, you can use Minify to reduce the JSON to a more compact format by removing unnecessary whitespace and line breaks. The formatted result can also be copied or downloaded as a .json file, making it easy to use the output in another application or save it for later.
JSON Formatter is useful when working with API responses, configuration files and other JSON data that is difficult to read because of its formatting. You can quickly turn a compact or poorly formatted document into a structured JSON file directly in your browser.
