Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to paste API secrets or authorization tokens?

Yes. Parsing executes locally inside your browser V8 engine without sending payloads across the network.

What happens if my JSON has a syntax error?

The tool pinpoints the exact parsing error so you can fix missing quotes or commas instantly.
