About json formatter & validator

JSON formatter indents messy JSON so it is readable, minifies it back down for shipping, and tells you exactly where a syntax error is when parsing fails.

API responses regularly contain tokens, emails and customer records. Because this formatter parses in your browser instead of posting to a backend, you can paste a production payload without leaking it.

How to use JSON formatter & validator

  1. 1Paste your JSON into the editor.
  2. 2Choose Format to indent it or Minify to compress it.
  3. 3Copy the result, or read the error message if the JSON is invalid.

What it does

  • Precise error messages with position
  • 2-space, 4-space or tab indentation
  • Minify to the smallest valid output
  • Payload never leaves the browser
