Selection and element JSON formatter

Format the JSON fragment you found on the page.

Select a messy payload, or hover the DOM element that contains it, then press vv. RawLens opens a readable local view without changing page order or uploading content.

RawLens selection formatting result
Selection and hovered-element formatting are one shortcut away.

Useful when only one blob matters.

Debug payloads often sit inside docs, admin pages, dashboards, incident notes, or copied issue comments. RawLens reads the selected text first; if there is no selection, it uses the hovered page element. That keeps the formatting target precise.

Selected text

Highlight the exact payload and press vv.

Hovered element

Move your pointer over the element and press vv.
