How to use SQL Formatter & Beautifier

  1. 1

    Paste your SQL query

    Paste any SQL (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, joins and subqueries). Minified or messy SQL is fine.

  2. 2

    Read the formatted output

    The query is formatted as you type: clauses start on their own lines and nested subqueries are indented further.

  3. 3

    Set keyword case and indentation

    Choose uppercase, lowercase or preserved keywords and an indent width. Formatting follows standard SQL that works across MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite and SQL Server.

  4. 4

    Minify when needed

    Turn on Minify to compress the query onto one line for logs or API payloads.

  5. 5

    Copy or download

    Copy the result into your database client, migration file or application code, or download it.
