Frequently Asked Questions

What does prettifying do?

It adds line breaks and indentation so the structure of the JSON is clear, without changing any of the data.

Will it change my data?

No. Only the spacing changes. The keys, values, and order stay exactly the same.

What if my JSON is invalid?

The tool shows a clear error with the position, so you can find and fix the problem.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser, so the JSON you paste is never uploaded.

Is it free?
