SQL Formatter Help, Examples, and FAQ

Usage Guide

Use the SQL formatter to clean up one-line queries copied from ORM logs, slow-query logs, database clients, or code reviews. Paste SQL into the input area, then format it into an indented multi-line structure to read WHERE, JOIN, and grouping conditions more easily, or minify it into a single comment-free line for logging or sharing. Formatting supports an uppercase-keyword toggle and 2/4/6/8 space indentation, and everything runs locally in your browser without uploading data.

Examples

Format a long ORM-generated query to verify that the actual JOINs, conditions, and ordering match your intent.
When tuning a slow query, format it first to inspect indexed columns, WHERE order, and aggregation levels.
Minify a finished query into one line before pasting it into a ticket or log entry to reduce noise.

FAQ

Does formatting change how SQL executes? No. It only adjusts whitespace, line breaks, and keyword casing; the statement itself is never rewritten.
Which databases are supported? Formatting uses generic SQL tokenizing (strings, comments, parentheses, keywords), so SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE and common dialects all work. It does not validate syntax for a specific engine.
Is my input uploaded? No. Formatting, minifying, and statistics all run locally in your browser.
