JSON Viewer
View your JSON data in an interactive, collapsible tree structure.
About the JSON Viewer Tool
The JSON Viewer tool allows you to visualize JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) data in a structured, collapsible tree view. This makes it easier to navigate, understand, and debug complex JSON objects and arrays. Simply paste your JSON text or upload a JSON file, and the tool will render an interactive tree representation.
You can customize the view with options like default expansion level, theme (light/dark), whether to sort object keys alphabetically, and toggle the display of data types and collection sizes.
How to use the JSON Viewer tool?
- Enter your JSON data into the input text area, or drag and drop a JSON file.
- Adjust the view options as desired (Expand Level, Theme, Sort Keys, etc.).
- If "Auto Update" is checked, the tree view will update as you type or change options. Otherwise, click the "View Tree" button.
- Navigate the JSON structure by expanding and collapsing nodes in the tree view.
- Use the "Copy Input JSON" or "Download Input JSON" buttons to work with your original JSON data.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is JSON Viewer used for?
A JSON Viewer is used to display JSON data in a human-readable, hierarchical tree format. This is particularly helpful for inspecting complex or deeply nested JSON structures, debugging API responses, or simply understanding the organization of a JSON document.
Can I edit the JSON in the tree view?
This particular tool is a JSON Viewer, designed primarily for display and navigation. It does not support direct editing within the tree view itself. You can edit the raw JSON in the input text area, and the tree view will update.
What if my JSON is invalid?
If the input text is not valid JSON, the tool will display an error message, and the tree view will not be rendered. Please ensure your JSON syntax is correct.
Is my JSON data sent to the server?
No. All parsing and rendering of the JSON data happen locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your data is never sent to any server, ensuring privacy.
What options can I configure for the tree view?
You can configure the default number of levels to expand, choose a light or dark theme, opt to sort object keys alphabetically, and toggle the display of data types and collection (array/object) sizes.
