JSON Formatter and Validator
Clean up API responses, configuration files, webhook payloads, and copied logs. The formatter parses input locally, reports syntax errors, and produces readable or compact JSON.

Data handling notes
- Formatting and validation run entirely in the browser.
- Standard JSON rules apply: comments, trailing commas, and unquoted keys are invalid.
- Readable output uses two-space indentation; compact output removes unnecessary whitespace.
Before you rely on the result
This tool is intended for fast inspection and routine preparation. It can save time, but it does not replace review when the result affects production systems, security settings, business data, or legal obligations.
- Check representative inputs instead of assuming one example covers every edge case.
- Do not paste secrets, private customer data, or credentials unless you have confirmed the page processes that data locally and the use is allowed by your organization.
- Copy the output into your own workflow only after checking formatting, timezone, encoding, or syntax assumptions.
- Data conversion tools preserve structure where possible, but they cannot infer business rules such as optional fields, database dialects, XML namespaces, or CSV column meaning.
Real examples
Compressed API response
Format a copied response before sharing it in a ticket or debugging note.
Input
{"status":"ok","items":[{"id":1,"name":"Ada"}]}Output
{
"status": "ok",
"items": [
{
"id": 1,
"name": "Ada"
}
]
}Invalid deployment config
Validate configuration before release so a small syntax issue does not break startup.
Input
{"retry":3,"enabled":true,}Output
Syntax error: trailing commas are not valid JSON.
