Complete Guide to JSON Tools

Quick Start

  1. Paste your JSON in the input panel
  2. Click "Format JSON" for basic formatting
  3. Use conversion buttons or dropdown for different formats
  4. Switch to Tree View for hierarchical visualization

JSON Formatting

  • Choose between 2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tab indentation
  • Real-time syntax validation
  • Error highlighting with detailed messages
  • Copy formatted output with one click

Format Conversion

  • CSV: Convert JSON arrays to spreadsheet format
  • XML: Transform JSON to XML structure
  • YAML: Convert to human-readable YAML format
  • Minify: Compress JSON by removing whitespace

Tree View

  • Collapsible hierarchical visualization
  • Color-coded keys and values
  • Search functionality within tree structure
  • Navigate complex JSON structures easily

Advanced Tools

  • Download in any supported format
  • Search and navigate through JSON content
  • Keyboard shortcuts for common actions
  • Auto-formatting on paste

Common Use Cases

API Response to CSV Spreadsheet

Perfect for when you need to:

  • Convert API responses into Excel-compatible formats
  • Create reports from JSON data
  • Analyze data in spreadsheet applications
// API Response
[
  {"userId": 1, "orders": 50, "revenue": 1500},
  {"userId": 2, "orders": 30, "revenue": 900}
]

→ Converts to CSV for Excel:
userId,orders,revenue
1,50,1500
2,30,900

Integration with Legacy Systems

Useful when working with:

  • SOAP web services
  • Enterprise systems requiring XML
  • EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) processes
// Modern API Response
{
  "order": {
    "id": "12345",
    "items": ["item1", "item2"]
  }
}

→ Legacy System Compatible XML:
<root>
  <order>
    <id>12345</id>
    <items>
      <item>item1</item>
      <item>item2</item>
    </items>
  </order>
</root>

Configuration Management

Essential for:

  • Kubernetes configurations
  • Application config files
  • CI/CD pipeline configurations
// JSON Config
{
  "app": {
    "name": "myservice",
    "ports": [8080, 9000],
    "env": {
      "NODE_ENV": "production"
    }
  }
}

→ DevOps-friendly YAML:
app:
  name: myservice
  ports:
    - 8080
    - 9000
  env:
    NODE_ENV: production

Complex Data Navigation

Ideal for:

  • Debugging nested API responses
  • Exploring complex JSON structures
  • Finding specific values in large datasets
Use the Tree View toggle to visualize nested structures and search through complex JSON data easily. The search feature helps you quickly locate specific values in large JSON objects.
