SQL Formatter

Code

Format and minify SQL with keyword uppercasing and dialect detection

Paste a dense, single-line query and it comes back with consistent indentation and line breaks, or run it in reverse to minify a formatted query down for embedding compactly in application code or a config value. Dialect detection picks up on patterns like quoting style to flag dialect-specific syntax, MySQL backticks versus Postgres double quotes, before you accidentally run a query written for one database against another. Keyword uppercasing only touches recognized SQL keywords like SELECT, FROM, WHERE, and JOIN; column and table names and string literals are left untouched, so it won't accidentally rewrite your schema's naming. It formats syntax structure only. It doesn't execute the query or validate it against a real schema, so a syntactically clean query here can still fail against your actual database. Everything runs client-side.

How to use SQL Formatter

  • 1.Paste a dense, single-line SQL query to get it reformatted with consistent indentation and line breaks for readability.
  • 2.Minify a formatted query when you need to embed it compactly in application code or a config value.
  • 3.Use dialect detection to catch dialect-specific syntax (like MySQL backticks vs Postgres double quotes) before running the query elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions

Does this validate that my SQL is correct?
No, it formats syntax structure but doesn't execute or fully validate the query against a real database schema or SQL grammar.
Which SQL dialects are supported?
Common dialects including standard SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and T-SQL are supported, with automatic detection based on syntax patterns like quoting style.
Does keyword uppercasing change my column or table names?
No, only recognized SQL keywords (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN, etc.) are uppercased — identifiers and string literals are left untouched.
Is my SQL sent to a server?
No, formatting runs entirely client-side in your browser.
