Frequently Asked Questions

What is a JSON Beautifier?

A JSON Beautifier is a tool that formats JSON data into a readable, well-structured format with proper indentation and line breaks. It makes JSON easier to read and debug by organizing the data hierarchically.

How do I use the JSON Beautifier?

Simply paste your JSON data into the input field, select your preferred indentation (2 or 4 spaces), and click 'Format JSON'. The beautified output will appear in the output field, which you can then copy or download.

What's the difference between 2 and 4 space indentation?

Both are valid formatting options. 2-space indentation creates more compact output, while 4-space indentation provides more visual separation. Choose based on your project's coding standards or personal preference.

Can this tool validate my JSON?

Yes! The JSON Beautifier automatically validates your JSON syntax. If there are any errors, it will display detailed error messages indicating what went wrong and where.

Is my JSON data safe when using this tool?

Absolutely. All JSON processing happens entirely in your browser. Your data never leaves your device and is not sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.

Can I download the formatted JSON?

Yes! After formatting your JSON, you can download it as a .json file by clicking the 'Download JSON' button. This is useful for saving formatted configurations or API responses.
