How to use SQL Formatter

Format common SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements into readable clauses. Quoted strings, identifiers, and comments are preserved.

Good to know

This is a basic, dialect-neutral formatter, not a SQL parser or validator. Review complex procedural SQL before use. No query is executed.

Separate the main clauses of a query

Choose Format to try this example.

Input

select id, name from users where active = true order by name;

Expected result

SELECT id,
  name
FROM users
WHERE active = true
ORDER BY name;

Common questions and mistakes

Does formatting check whether the query is correct?

No. This tool changes layout around common SQL keywords, but it does not parse a database schema, validate syntax, or run the query. Test the query in your database’s normal development environment.

When should I use a database-specific formatter?

Use one for procedural SQL, vendor-specific quoting, dollar-quoted strings, or complex nested queries. This basic formatter preserves standard quoted strings, identifiers, and comments, but does not cover every dialect. Keep your original query and review changes.
