How to use JSON to YAML

  1. Paste the JSON you want to convert into the left editor.

  2. The YAML is generated as you type, with two-space indentation.

  3. Copy the YAML or download it as a .yaml file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are strings quoted correctly?

Yes. Values that YAML would otherwise read as numbers, booleans or null — such as "yes", "01" or "null" — are quoted so the meaning of your data is preserved.

Is the conversion lossless?

Round-tripping JSON to YAML and back gives you the same document. YAML anchors and multi-document files are not produced, since JSON has no equivalent concept.

Can I convert YAML back to JSON?

Yes — use the YAML to JSON tool, which reads the same subset of YAML that this converter writes, including nested maps, sequences and comments.
