Braces become indentation
Each object becomes an indented block, each list a run of dashes, and multi-line text a readable block.
How it works
Three steps, nothing more.
Step 01
Paste your JSON, or drop the file that holds it.
Step 02
Pick an indentation of two or four spaces.
Step 03
Download the YAML, or copy it.
What sets it apart
Built for the result.
02
Ambiguous text protected
Text a YAML reader would take for something else — yes, on, 007, 1:30, a date — is quoted, and reads back exactly as it was in the JSON.
Accepted formats
Drop them as they are, no conversion needed first.
- JSON
- CSV
- TSV
- XML
- YAML

Where your data is processed
With this tool, what you paste or drop is not transmitted anywhere: not to us, not to any third party. We know neither its contents nor the file name.
Nothing is kept, because nothing reaches us.

Because, unquoted, a YAML reader would take them for a boolean, a number or a date: yes would become true, 007 would become 7. Quotes keep the JSON's text.
