About This Calculator
This SQL formatter breaks your query onto separate lines for each major clause (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, etc.) and applies consistent indentation, with string literals left untouched.
It is designed to make long queries readable at a glance. The result is still valid SQL — the formatter only changes whitespace, never the logic or values.
Formatting runs fully in your browser, so you can tidy production queries without sending them anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does formatting change what my query does?
No. The formatter only affects whitespace, indentation, and line breaks. Keywords, values, and string literals are preserved exactly, so the query runs identically.
Which SQL dialects are supported?
The formatter handles the common clause keywords used across MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and SQLite. Dialect-specific syntax is left as-is.
