Examples

1. Formatting GraphQL Query for Documentation

Frontend Developer

Background

A developer is writing documentation for a new API feature and needs to provide a clean JSON example of a complex user profile query.

Problem

The raw GraphQL query is difficult to read and needs to be presented as a structured JSON object for the documentation.

How to use

Paste the GraphQL query into the input field, select 'GraphQL Query' as the type, and convert.

Outcome

The tool outputs a clean, formatted JSON object that can be directly copied into the API documentation.

2. Debugging API Response Data

Backend Engineer

Background

An engineer is troubleshooting an issue where the frontend is not receiving the expected data format from the GraphQL server.

Problem

The raw response from the server is a minified string, making it hard to inspect the nested fields.

How to use

Paste the raw response string into the input field, select 'GraphQL Response (JSON)' as the type, and convert.

Outcome

The tool provides a prettified JSON structure, allowing the engineer to quickly identify the missing or malformed data fields.
