Questions about YAML Formatter

Is my input uploaded?

File and text processing runs in your browser. Opening the website still loads application assets from its host.

What if the result looks wrong?

Check scalar types, indentation and the requirements of the application that consumes the YAML; formatting alone does not validate that application's configuration.

Can I use sensitive production data?

Prefer non-sensitive test data. Never paste live access tokens, passwords or confidential documents into a site without assessing its code and environment.
