SQL Formatter
Format and beautify SQL queries with syntax highlighting.
About SQL Formatter
The SQL Formatter on ToolsOfIndia is a free browser-based tool built for developers, data analysts and DBAs. Everything is processed locally in your browser, so pasted code, tokens or client data never leaves your device - no uploads, no logs, no tracking. Beautify and validate SQL by indenting keywords, aligning columns and flagging syntax errors, with the tool supporting MySQL, Postgres, SQL Server and Oracle dialects. Indian developers work with long queries, and an unformatted query is hard to read and debug, which the tool fixes in one click. A minify mode strips whitespace for compact storage, and the keyword case can be set to upper or lower to match a team style. Because the SQL is processed in the browser, nothing is uploaded. It is the SQL formatter that the database client makes too slow for a quick tidy. Common scenarios include beautifying a long SQL query, formatting a query for a code review, and minifying a query for storage. Pair it with the related tools listed alongside for a complete workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why format SQL queries?
Formatted SQL is easier to read, debug, and maintain. Proper indentation shows query structure at a glance — SELECT clauses, JOIN conditions, WHERE filters become immediately visible.
What SQL dialects are supported?
MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, SQL Server (T-SQL), Oracle PL/SQL, MariaDB, BigQuery, and Redshift. Each dialect has specific syntax and function differences our formatter handles.
What are SQL formatting best practices?
Use uppercase for keywords (SELECT, FROM, WHERE), align column lists, separate clauses with new lines, use meaningful aliases, and consistently indent JOINs and subqueries.
Which SQL dialects are supported?
MySQL, Postgres, SQL Server and Oracle, with the tool formatting to each, since syntax differs slightly.
Can it minify SQL?
Yes, a minify mode strips whitespace and newlines, producing compact SQL for storage or transport.
