JSON to YAML Converter

What is JSON to YAML Converter?

A JSON to YAML converter turns a JSON object into YAML indentation syntax level by level, which is what you need when moving an API response or a config fragment into YAML-first formats such as Kubernetes manifests and CI pipelines. The conversion runs inside the browser and nothing is uploaded.

How to use JSON to YAML Converter

1. 1Paste your JSON into the input box; the tool validates that it is well-formed first.
2. 2Choose an indentation width — 2 spaces is the norm across the Kubernetes ecosystem.
3. 3Copy the YAML on the right and paste it into your target config file.
4. 4For the opposite direction, switch to the YAML to JSON tool.

How do I do this in code?

Use the tool above for one-off work; for anything you repeat, move it into a script or your project.

import yaml from 'js-yaml';

const text = yaml.dump(JSON.parse(raw), { indent: 2, lineWidth: 120 });
