JSON Viewer

View JSON in a clean, readable, formatted layout.

Just show me the JSON

Often you simply want to read a piece of JSON clearly — see its structure, find a value, understand its shape — without editing it. This displays JSON in a clean, properly-indented, readable layout, so a raw response or a minified blob becomes something you can actually scan and understand.

Paste your JSON and view it laid out clearly.

Viewer, tree, or formatter

There are a few ways to look at JSON, suited to different needs. A plain formatted view like this is best for reading and copying a readable version. A tree view is better when you want to expand and collapse branches to navigate deep structure. A path finder helps when you need the route to a specific value for your code. For the common case of taking a messy JSON string and just seeing it clearly, a clean formatted view is the quickest, and it validates the JSON as a side effect — if it will not display cleanly, there is a syntax error to find.

Common questions

How is this different from a tree view?

A formatted view shows the whole JSON as readable, indented text to scan and copy; a tree view lets you expand and collapse branches to navigate.

Does it check my JSON is valid?

Yes, as a side effect — if it will not display cleanly, there is a syntax error somewhere to fix.

Is my JSON uploaded?

No. It is displayed in your browser.
