Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I avoid using public online JSON formatters for API data?
Many online JSON formatters send your data to a backend server or run analytics trackers. If your JSON contains API keys, customer names, or passwords, they can be logged. BigWow runs entirely in your local browser sandbox, keeping your data secure.
Does this tool support JSON validation?
Yes. It parses the JSON input and catches syntax errors (like trailing commas or unquoted keys), showing you the exact line number of any formatting issue.
