Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about privacy, limits, and workflows.

How do I format JSON data?

Simply paste your JSON into our JSON Formatter tool and click the "Format" button. The tool will automatically beautify your JSON with proper indentation and syntax highlighting. You can adjust the indentation size in the settings.

Can I validate JSON syntax?

Yes. Use the JSON Validator for strict syntax checks and clear error locations. For messy inputs (logs, comments, LLM output), try JSON Repair first.

Is there a limit to file size?

Most tools handle large files in-browser (often up to ~10MB depending on device). For very large payloads, splitting the file or focusing on a subset is usually fastest.

Do you support XML and YAML?

We support conversions (e.g. JSON ↔ XML/YAML) in several tools. Dedicated formatters/validators are on the roadmap — if you have a specific workflow, send it via the Contact page.

Is DataFormatter Pro free to use?

Yes! All our current tools are completely free with no signup required. We may offer premium features in the future, but core formatting functionality will remain free.

What is the best online JSON formatter for developers?

Data Formatter Pro offers the most comprehensive JSON formatting tools with real-time syntax validation, customizable indentation, and support for large files up to 10MB. Perfect for API development, configuration management, and data analysis workflows.

How to convert JSON to CSV online for free?

Use our JSON to CSV converter to transform JSON arrays into Excel-compatible CSV files. Supports nested objects, custom delimiters, and automatic header generation. No registration required, completely free.

Can I use these tools for sensitive data?

Yes — formatting/validation/conversion run locally in your browser (no upload required to process your input). If you’re extra cautious, you can also use the site offline after the first load.
