This tool extracts plain text from JSON structures instantly. It’s useful when you want to remove formatting and metadata from structured data and output only the readable string values. You can paste or upload your JSON input, configure a few output options, and copy or export the clean text in real time.
How to Use:
Paste your JSON content into the left-hand input box. You can also upload a .json or .txt file using the Choose File button. Then customize the result using the Options:
- Trim string values: Removes extra whitespace from each string field before outputting it.
- Collapse to single line: Combines all text nodes into a single space-separated line instead of listing each value on a new line.
The extracted text appears instantly in the right-hand output box. You can click Copy Output to copy it, or use Export to File to download it. Use Clear All to reset both sides.
What the JSON to Text Converter Tool does:
This tool recursively searches through your JSON data, finds all primitive string, number, and boolean values, and flattens them into readable plain text. It skips keys, brackets, commas, and formatting so you only get the actual content. You can control how it’s structured with the provided toggles.
Example:
Input JSON:
{
"person": {
"name": "Alice",
"age": 28,
"city": "Paris"
}
}
Output (line-by-line):
Alice
28
Paris
Output (single line):
Alice 28 Paris
Common Use Cases:
Use this tool when you need to extract readable values from structured data for copying into other systems, printing, indexing, or using in a plain-text environment. It’s great for cleaning up data previews, simplifying logs, or extracting raw content from web data. Just paste, adjust, and export.
