How to use SQL Formatter
- Paste or type your contentThe result appears as you type — there is no submit button.
- Read and copy the resultThe output updates live and the copy button takes it in one click.
Worked example
- select id,name from users where active=1 order by name
- select id, name from users where active=1 order by name
Nothing you enter leaves your device
All of the work happens inside your browser. Whatever you type is never packaged up and sent to a server, and no request this page makes carries it.
That makes it safe for contract amounts, personal details and internal documents you would rather not hand to a third party — close the tab and it is gone.
What this tool does not do
SQL Formatter only does what a browser can do on its own — it talks to no backend service. So it keeps no history for you and syncs nothing across devices; if you need a record, copy or download the result.
It is also not a substitute for professional judgement. For legal, medical or tax decisions, treat the output as a starting point rather than a final answer.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Which clauses does it break onto new lines?
- SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, LIMIT and the main keywords get their own lines.
- Does it change the query?
- No. It only adds whitespace; the SQL logic is untouched.
