Why format JSON?
Pretty-printed JSON is easier to read, debug, and share. Formatting helps you spot missing commas, wrong brackets, or broken nesting.
Common JSON mistakes
- Trailing commas (example:
{"a":1,}) - Using single quotes instead of double quotes
- Missing
{ }or[ ]brackets - Unquoted object keys (example:
{a: 1})
How to use this tool
Paste JSON into the editor above. Click Validate to check for errors, Format to pretty-print, or Minify to compress your JSON into one line.
