What is SQL Formatter?
Raw SQL queries pasted from logs, APIs, or ORMs are often a single unreadable line. DailyDevTools' SQL Formatter applies consistent indentation, capitalization, and newlines to make complex queries readable in seconds. It supports multiple SQL dialects including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, and BigQuery, and can minify SQL for production use or copy queries for documentation.

- 1Paste your SQL query — minified, logged, or raw — into the input panel
- 2Select your SQL dialect from the dropdown (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, etc.)
- 3Click Format to apply indentation and capitalization, or Minify to compress the query
- 4Use Copy to copy the formatted query or Download to save it as a .sql file
Frequently asked questions
Which SQL dialects does the formatter support?
The formatter supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server (T-SQL), BigQuery, and ANSI SQL, automatically adjusting syntax conventions for each dialect.
Does it validate SQL syntax?
The formatter applies formatting rules for the selected dialect and surfaces obvious syntax issues, but it does not execute the query or check against a live database schema.
Can it format stored procedures and CTEs?
Yes. Complex queries including CTEs (WITH clauses), subqueries, JOINs, stored procedures, and window functions are all handled correctly with proper indentation.
