What this tool does

Convert JSON objects, arrays and values to YAML in your browser. Choose indentation and review readable configuration without sending it to a server.

Paste valid JSON and convert it to readable YAML.

Features

Convert JSON objects, arrays and scalar values into YAML text.

When to use it

Move a JSON configuration into a YAML-based workflow and review the result.

Example and checks

JSON arrays become YAML sequences. Review strings that resemble numbers or booleans in the destination application; a format conversion is not application-level validation.

enabled: true
names:
  - demo

Common questions

Will my original formatting or comments transfer?

Formatting and comments are not transferred; JSON does not support comments.
