Convert JSON To YAML

JSON vs YAML: What’s the Difference?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a strict and lightweight data format widely used in APIs and applications. It uses brackets, commas, and quoted keys to maintain structure and readability.

YAML (YAML Ain’t Markup Language) is indentation-based and more human-friendly. It is commonly used in configuration files such as Kubernetes manifests, Docker Compose files, and CI/CD pipelines.

When to Use

  • Convert JSON API responses into YAML for configuration files.
  • Transform YAML DevOps configs into JSON for automation scripts.
  • Use YAML for Kubernetes, Docker, or CI/CD workflows while keeping JSON for APIs.
  • Debug or migrate structured data between JSON and YAML formats.

  2. Select the conversion direction: JSON → YAML or YAML → JSON.
  3. Click the "Convert" button to generate the result.
