JSON URL Viewer

Accessing JSON data served via URLs is crucial for interacting with APIs, fetching remote configurations, or analyzing publicly available datasets. Our online tool allows you to directly fetch JSON from any accessible URL, parse it, and view its contents without needing command-line tools like cURL or specialized browser extensions. Simply provide the URL, and let our tool handle the rest.

How to Fetch JSON from a URL

1. Enter the URL: Paste the full URL that points to the JSON data into the input field.
2. Click Fetch: Press the "Fetch" button next to the input field.
3. Processing: The tool will attempt to retrieve the data from the specified URL. This might take a moment depending on the server response time.
4. View the Data: If the request is successful and the response is valid JSON, the data will be displayed in the Tree, Code, and Raw Text views above. You can also inspect its metadata.
5. Error Handling: If the URL is inaccessible, doesn't return valid JSON, or if there's a network issue, an appropriate error message will be shown.

Advantages of Using the JSON URL Viewer

• Convenience: No need for cURL, Postman, or other tools for simple JSON fetching and viewing.
• Cross-Origin Handling: Our backend fetches the data, bypassing potential browser CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) issues you might encounter when fetching directly in your browser console.
• Structured Viewing: Explore the fetched JSON easily using the interactive Tree view or formatted Code view.
• Validation Included: Automatically verifies if the fetched data is syntactically correct JSON.
• History Access: Fetched JSON data is automatically saved to your local history for later review.
