Use cases

About this tool

Format OpenAPI documents as readable JSON or YAML. Processing happens locally in your browser, so your input is not sent to a server or included in analytics.

Frequently asked questions

Does formatting change the API behavior?

It parses and serializes the document; review scalar types and comments because comments and formatting may not be preserved.

Does it support both formats?

Yes. JSON input remains JSON and YAML input is formatted as YAML.

Is the document uploaded?

No. Formatting runs in your browser.
