Everything you need to explore JSON
Why Use JSON Viewer?
Interactive Tree View
Navigate nested JSON with a collapsible tree. Expand and collapse any node, see item counts, and drill into deeply nested structures effortlessly.
Instant Search & Filter
Search by key name or value across the entire JSON. Matches are highlighted and parent paths auto-expand so you find what you need immediately.
Copy JSON Paths
Click any key to copy its full JSON path (e.g. data.users[0].name) to your clipboard. Perfect for API development and debugging.
Handles Large Files
Virtualized rendering ensures smooth performance even with multi-megabyte JSON files. Only visible nodes are rendered for instant response.
Common Use Cases
How developers use the JSON Viewer
API Debugging
Paste API responses to explore nested data structures. Copy JSON paths for use in your code or Postman queries.
Database Inspection
View exported database records in a readable tree. Search for specific fields across thousands of entries.
Config File Review
Open complex configuration files and navigate deeply nested settings without losing your place.
Log Analysis
Load structured JSON logs to find specific events, errors, or values buried in large log files.
How It Works
Load Your JSON
Drag and drop a .json file, paste JSON text, load from a URL, or try the built-in sample data.
Explore the Tree
Navigate the interactive tree view. Click nodes to expand or collapse. See object key counts and array lengths at a glance.
Search & Copy Paths
Use the search bar to find keys or values. Click any key to copy its JSON path to the clipboard for use in your code.

Pro Tips for JSON Viewing
Use Depth Controls
Click depth buttons (1, 2, 3, All) to expand the tree to a specific level. Start shallow and drill deeper as needed.
Click Keys to Copy Paths
Click any key name to instantly copy its full JSON path. Great for building API queries or referencing nested values in code.
Search Narrows the View
Searching auto-expands only matching paths, effectively filtering the tree. This is the fastest way to find data in large files.
Go Fullscreen for Large Files
Use the fullscreen button to maximize the viewer. Especially useful when working with deeply nested or wide JSON structures.
