About JSON Formatter

JSON represents structured data using objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, and null. Consistent indentation makes nested API responses and configuration files easier to inspect.

Important considerations

Valid JSON is not the same as data that meets an application's schema. Comments and trailing commas are not part of standard JSON.
