What the tool does

Makes JSON readable with indentation or compacts it to one line, and shows what is wrong when it is invalid.

How to use it

  1. Paste JSON.
  2. Choose indentation or "Minify".
  3. Copy the result.

Good to know

  • Data stays in your browser, so private data is fine.
  • The error message hints at where the JSON is broken.
