Free Online SQL Formatter and Beautifier
Format, beautify, and minify SQL queries with our free online SQL formatter. Paste your query directly, upload a .sql file, or load a sample to see it in action. Messy, single-line SQL becomes clean and readable with proper line breaks and indentation for clauses like SELECT, FROM, JOIN, WHERE, GROUP BY, and ORDER BY. Clean SQL can also be minified into a single compact line. Completely free, no registration required, and all processing happens securely in your browser.
Key Features
Clause-Aware Formatting: Major clauses like SELECT, FROM, JOIN, WHERE, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, and HAVING each start on their own line, with column lists and conditions indented underneath for easy reading.
Keyword Case Control: Choose to format SQL keywords in UPPERCASE, lowercase, or leave them exactly as you typed them.
Adjustable Indentation: Pick 2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tabs for your formatted output, matching your project's style.
Minify for Production: Compress a formatted query down to a single line when you need a compact version for logs or embedding in code.
Common Use Cases
Debugging Queries: Format a long, single-line SQL query from a log file or database tool to understand its structure at a glance.
Code Reviews: Beautify SQL before sharing it with teammates so joins, conditions, and clauses are easy to follow.
Documentation: Clean up SQL examples before including them in technical documentation or tutorials.
