Frequently Asked Questions

How do I navigate deeply nested JSON?+

Click any node with a triangle arrow to expand it and reveal child properties. Click again to collapse. Use Ctrl+Click to expand all children at once.

Can I search for a specific key in JSON?+

Yes. Use the search box to filter the tree to only nodes matching your search term. Both keys and values are searched.

How do I copy a specific value from the JSON?+

Click on any value in the tree to copy it to your clipboard. Nested objects are copied as formatted JSON.

Is there a size limit for JSON input?+

No enforced limit, but very large JSON files (over 5 MB) may take a moment to parse. For files this large, consider a desktop JSON viewer.
