Turn messy, single-line SQL queries into clean, properly indented, readable code instantly.
Common keywords like SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, HAVING, INSERT INTO, UPDATE, and DELETE FROM are recognized and placed on new lines with uppercase formatting.
This formatter handles standard SQL syntax common across MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and SQL Server. Highly dialect-specific syntax may not format perfectly.
No, formatting only adds whitespace and line breaks for readability — it doesn't change the query logic or behavior.
This tool reformats SQL queries — turning a dense, single-line query into a clean, readable structure with each major clause on its own line and consistent capitalization for keywords.
SQL queries copied from logs, generated by ORMs, or written quickly during debugging are often compressed onto a single line, making them hard to read at a glance. Proper formatting — placing each major clause (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY, ORDER BY) on its own line with consistent indentation — makes the query's structure and logic immediately clear, which speeds up debugging, code review, and understanding queries written by others.
The formatter identifies common SQL keywords within your query and places each one at the start of a new line, capitalizing it for consistency, while leaving the rest of your query (table names, column names, values, conditions) untouched. This produces a query that's dramatically easier to scan and understand without altering its actual logic or behavior in any way.
All formatting happens directly in your browser — your SQL queries are never sent to a server.
