How do I format JSON correctly?

To format JSON correctly, use proper indentation, line breaks, and spacing for readability. Each nested level should be indented consistently, typically with 2 or 4 spaces. Place opening braces on the same line as the key and closing braces on separate lines. The easiest way is using our JSON Formatter at jsonconsole.com/json-formatter which automatically formats your JSON with perfect indentation. Simply paste your minified or messy JSON and click format to get clean, readable output. Ensure each key-value pair is on its own line, arrays are properly structured, and no trailing commas exist. Our formatter handles large files and provides options for different indentation styles. Proper formatting makes JSON easier to read, debug, and maintain. Always validate after formatting to ensure syntax correctness.
