{ } How to use
- Paste your JSON.
- Select Process to convert it to YAML.
- Copy the YAML, or download it as a .yaml file.
{ } How it works
JSON to YAML works on the text you provide. Select Process ▸ and it runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server — then shows the result in the Output panel.
Input
- JSON input — paste or type your input in the left panel (use Sample for an example)
Output
YAML text — copy or download it from the Output panel.
{ } Common uses
- Move an API payload into a Kubernetes, Docker Compose or CI configuration.
- Hand a configuration to people who find YAML easier to read and edit.
- Review a large document without closing brackets and quotation marks in the way.
{ } Limitations
- The output is indented with two spaces, and lines are never wrapped — a long string stays on one line.
- No comments are produced, because JSON has none to carry over.
- Anchors and aliases are not generated, so a value that repeats in the input repeats in the output.
{ } FAQ
Is my data uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser — your files never leave your device.
Can I process more than one file at once?
This tool works on one input at a time.
Is this tool free?
Yes — it’s completely free and needs no sign-up.
Is the YAML equivalent to my JSON?
Yes. YAML is a superset of JSON, so every value converts without loss.
Can I convert it back?
Yes. YAML to JSON returns the same structure.
