SQL Formatter
Format simple SQL queries with readable line breaks.
Readable SQL in a click
A query written as one long line — or generated by a tool — is hard to read and review. This formatter adds line breaks and indentation around clauses so a SELECT becomes legible, making it far easier to understand and debug.
Clean formatting reveals the structure of a query: the joins, the conditions, the grouping. Paste a compact query, get a formatted version, and copy it back — useful for code review, documentation, and untangling someone else’s SQL.
Readable SQL, locally
Line breaks and indentation on clauses make a long query reviewable again. Formatting runs in your browser and never uploads your query.
Frequently asked questions
What does the SQL formatter do?
It puts clauses like SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, and LIMIT on their own lines so queries are easier to read.
Does it change my query?
Only whitespace and line breaks. Table names, values, and logic stay the same.
Does it indent subqueries?
No. It is built for simple queries. For complex SQL, use your database tool's formatter.
