JSON Viewer — Explore JSON as a Tree
Paste JSON to explore it as a collapsible tree. Search keys and values, expand or collapse everything, and click any node to copy its JSONPath.
Tree view

When should you use the JSON Viewer?
- Exploring a large or deeply nested API response
- Finding where a key lives inside a big JSON document

Common errors and how to fix them
Invalid JSON- The viewer needs valid JSON. Use the JSON Validator to find the error, or the JSON Formatter to repair it.
The tree is slow with a huge file- Very large documents (tens of megabytes) can be slow to render. Collapse all, then open only the branches you need.
