JSON formatter
Validate, format and download JSON.
Using this tool
JSON is a common data format for software settings and APIs. Correct formatting makes nested objects and arrays easier to read and helps expose syntax errors.
When it is useful
Inspect an API response, verify an exported settings file or format data before sharing it with a developer.
How to get a reliable result
Paste JSON and select Validate and format. If it parses successfully, download the indented JSON. If not, use the reported parser message to investigate the input.
Limits to know about
Valid JSON is not necessarily correct for a particular application. This formatter does not check external schemas or validate business rules.
