Simple steps to open a Json file format in VSCode

VSCode to open Json file formatting

When opening a JSON file in VSCode, you can use the following steps to format the JSON and display it as multiple lines:

  • Use shortcuts:

    • In the open JSON file, use the shortcut keys to format the document.
      • Windows/Linux:Shift + Alt + F
      • macOS:Shift + Option + F
  • Right-click menu:

    • In the open JSON file, right-click and select "Format Document" or "Format Selection".
  • Command Panel:

    • Open the Commands panel:
      • Windows/Linux:Ctrl + Shift + P
      • macOS:Cmd + Shift + P
    • Enter "Format Document" and select the appropriate command.

These methods will automatically format the JSON file so that it is displayed in a more readable multi-line format. If you only want to format a portion of the file, you can select the appropriate text and then execute the formatting command.

P.S. Command Formatting

This method is recommended when the JSON file is very large

For Mac/Linux users:

cat  | python - > 

For Windows users

type  | python - >
