JSON Viewer FAQ

How do I use this app?
Enter or paste JSON, use Format JSON if needed, expand the tree to inspect values, and copy the formatted text when you are done.
Is this app free to use?
Yes. JSON Viewer is free to use and does not require an account.
What happens to my input data?
Your JSON is processed locally in your browser and is not stored by the app. The page does not send it to an API, and refreshing the page clears the working state.
Why am I getting an error or unexpected output?
The input is usually not valid JSON. Check quoted property names, commas, braces, brackets, and trailing commas, then try again with a smaller sample if needed.
Where can I find instructions and troubleshooting tips?
Open the in-app Help panel for keyboard-friendly instructions, workflow tips, privacy notes, and common mistakes before sharing output with teammates.
