JSON Beautifier — Pretty-Print JSON Online
Beautify and pretty-print minified JSON with proper indentation. Make compressed API responses readable. Free online JSON beautifier.
Turn unreadable minified JSON into clean, properly indented code. Perfect for making sense of compressed API responses, config files, and database exports. Choose 2-space or 4-space indentation.
How It Works
Paste your JSON into the input panel, then click Format to pretty-print it or Minify to compress it. Invalid JSON shows a detailed error message with the exact position of the syntax error.
The formatter uses the browser's native JSON.parse() for validation and JSON.stringify() with configurable indentation for formatting. This ensures 100% spec-compliant parsing — if something is invalid JSON, you'll know exactly where and why.
