How to use the JSON to YAML Converter

Validate, beautify and clean JSON, CSV, XML and YAML.

The Data Formatter checks and tidies JSON, CSV, XML and YAML. It shows the exact line and column of an error, can fix common JSON mistakes, and cleans CSV by trimming spaces, removing empty rows and columns and dropping duplicates. Developers use it to read API responses, analysts to prepare files before an import. The result can be copied or downloaded, and your text never leaves your device.

  1. Paste or upload your data
  2. Choose the options
  3. Copy or download the result

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert JSON to YAML?

Open the YAML tab, paste your JSON and the formatted YAML appears. JSON is valid YAML, so it is read directly and written in block style, one key per line.

Will the values change?

No. Strings, numbers, true/false, null, lists and nested objects keep their values; only the layout changes. Keys keep their order.

Can I convert it back?

Yes. Choose JSON as the output to turn YAML into JSON.

What can the Data Formatter do?

Validate, beautify, minify and clean JSON, CSV, XML and YAML. Errors show the exact line and column, and JSON can be auto-fixed for common mistakes such as trailing commas and single quotes.
