Frequently Asked Questions
What does URL-decoding do?
It converts percent-encoded sequences, such as a percent 7B, back into the characters they stand for, like a brace.
Why also format the JSON?
Decoded JSON is often easier to read when it is indented, so the tool formats it when the result is valid JSON.
What if it is not valid JSON?
The tool still shows the decoded text, so it is useful for any URL-encoded value, not only JSON.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser, so the JSON you paste is never uploaded.
Is it free?
Yes. Every tool here is free to use with no sign up.
