What this tool does

JSON Sorter parses pasted JSON and recursively sorts object keys so payloads, configs, and examples are easier to compare.

Common use cases

Sort JSON object keys alphabetically for easier comparison, cleaner examples, and stable docs or tests.

Use JSON Sorter when you are working with copied API payloads, logs, encoded values, config snippets, identifiers, or debugging data and need a quick browser-local check before pasting the result into docs, tickets, tests, or another developer tool.

How to use it

  1. Paste valid JSON.
  2. Review the sorted, pretty-printed JSON output.
  3. Copy the sorted JSON for docs, tests, config cleanup, or diff workflows.

Example workflow

Copy a small payload or encoded value from an API response, request URL, log line, or config file. Run the focused check here, confirm the output is readable, then continue with related developer data tools such as validation, formatting, decoding, timestamp conversion, or CSV/JSON conversion.

Privacy note

Client-side only: JSON is sorted in your browser and is not uploaded.

FAQ

Does JSON Sorter upload my JSON?

No. Sorting runs locally in your browser.

Does it sort arrays?

Array order is preserved. Object keys inside arrays are sorted.

Should I validate JSON first?

If sorting fails, use JSON Validator to find syntax errors.
