Online JSON Formatter, Validator, and Minifier

Format, validate, minify, sort keys, escape, unescape, and query JSON locally for API responses, configuration files, and debugging.

What This Tool Does

This browser-based JSON toolkit turns compact JSON into readable output, validates syntax, minifies JSON, sorts object keys, escapes and unescapes JSON strings, and queries values with simple paths.

Common Use Cases

  • Formatting and validating JSON responses from APIs
  • Minifying JSON before copying it into configs, scripts, or test data
  • Sorting object keys, escaping JSON strings, and locating fields with path queries

How Data Is Handled

JSON processing runs in your browser. Your JSON text is not uploaded to the backend.

FAQ

Does this validate JSON syntax?

Yes. Invalid JSON produces a clear error instead of formatted output.

Does it support JSONPath?

It supports simple paths that start with $ for accessing object fields and array indexes.

Is my JSON sent to the server?

No. Formatting, validation, minifying, escaping, and querying run locally in the browser.
