Tool Introduction
The JSON Beautify/Format tool is a free online JSON processing tool designed to help users quickly and efficiently format, arrange, compress, and perform basic validation on JSON data. By adjusting indentation levels (e.g., 2 spaces, 4 spaces, Tab) and whether to sort key names, etc., it makes raw, messy JSON data clear, easy to read and analyze, greatly improving development and debugging efficiency. It is an ideal choice for developers and data analysts.
How to Use
- Paste the JSON text you need to beautify or format into the input box.
- Select output configurations according to your needs, such as indentation level (2 spaces, 4 spaces, Tab), whether to compress JSON, whether to sort JSON key names, etc.
- Click the “Beautify” or “Format” button, and the tool will immediately process and display the result.
- The input parameter is a standard JSON string, supporting single-line, multi-line, and any format of JSON text.
- The output result is a formatted or compressed JSON string, presenting different layout effects based on the selected configuration.
Usage Example
Provide real and usable examples based on configuration information, including:
- Example Input Data (Original Unformatted JSON):
{"name":"张三","age":30,"isStudent":false,"courses":["语文","数学"],"address":{"city":"北京","zip":"100000"}}
- Expected Output Result (Selected 2-space indentation, no key sorting):
{
"name": "张三",
"age": 30,
"isStudent": false,
"courses": [
"语文",
"数学"
],
"address": {
"city": "北京",
"zip": "100000"
}
}
- Specific Operation Demonstration:
1. Paste the above raw JSON data into the tool's input text box.
2. In the configuration options, select “2-space indentation” and ensure the “Sort Key Names” option is not selected.
3. Click the “Beautify” button.
4. The output box will display the above formatted JSON data, with a clear structure.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What are the core functions of the JSON Beautify/Format tool?
- A: This tool primarily provides online beautification, formatting, compression, and basic syntax validation functions for JSON data. Users can customize indentation levels and choose whether to sort JSON key names, greatly improving JSON data readability.
- Q: Does this tool support processing very large JSON files?
- A: To ensure the tool's response speed and user experience, online tools usually have limitations on the size of input data. If your JSON file is very large, it is recommended to process it in batches or use professional desktop tools.
- Q: Is my JSON data safe? Does the tool store my data?
- A: This tool uses client-side processing technology. Your JSON data is processed only locally in your browser and is not uploaded to the server. Therefore, your data is safe and private, and we do not store any user input data.
Notes
- Please ensure that the text you enter is a valid JSON string. If the JSON structure is incorrect, the tool may not be able to format it correctly and will prompt an error message.
- For JSON strings containing special characters (such as newlines, quotes), please ensure they are correctly escaped, otherwise, it may lead to parsing errors.
- Although the tool has strived to optimize performance, processing very large files may still take a longer time, or performance may degrade due to browser memory limitations.
- This tool only performs JSON formatting and basic syntax validation, not data content validation or semantic analysis.
