What JSON formatting does
Readable JSON
Formatting adds indentation and line breaks so API responses and configuration values are easier to read, review, debug, and share.
Minify JSON
Minify removes unnecessary spaces and line breaks for compact storage, transfer, logs, or configuration values.
Stringify JSON
Stringify converts JSON into an escaped string form that can be pasted into code or another JSON value.
How validation helps
Syntax feedback
Validation checks for missing commas, trailing commas, unquoted property names, mismatched brackets, or single quotes.
Smart Fix
Smart Fix can help with common safe repairs, but you should always review the corrected output before using it.
JSON Tree view and Table view
JSON Tree view
JSON Tree view is helpful for nested API responses because you can expand and collapse objects and arrays.
JSON Table view
Table view is best when JSON contains an array of similar records, such as users, products, orders, logs, or API result rows.
Recommended private workflow
Paste or load JSON
Paste JSON into the input panel or load it from a URL you trust.
Format and inspect
Use Format, fix validation errors, then switch to Tree view or Table view.
Export and use
Search, copy, stringify, download, or export the cleaned result.
