Pretty Print JSON for Debugging
🧩 Problem
Alerts and emails include minified JSON that’s hard to parse. When malformed or unstructured data hits routers, filters, or API connectors, entire automations halt or silently drop records. Teams end up retrying runs, hand-editing payloads, and explaining delays to customers.
💡 Why This Happens
APIs compress data; alerts don’t format payloads. Most automation platforms assume well-formed payloads and do minimal validation. AI models, third-party APIs, and changing vendor schemas drift over time, mixing encodings, formats, and unexpected fields that downstream steps cannot tolerate.
🚀 The Fix: JSON Pretty (API Endpoint)
Use this endpoint to solve the problem reliably inside Slack, Email, Zapier, Make.com, n8n.
Endpoint
POST https://api.postthatgetthis.com/json/pretty
Example Input
{ "order":{"id":9,"status":"paid"} }
Example Output
{
"order": {
"id": 9,
"status": "paid"
}
}
📦 What This Solves
- Indent JSON for humans
- Keep keys intact
- Share clean payloads in alerts
