Convert any Base64-encoded JSON string into readable, structured JSON with this free online Base64 to JSON converter. Paste your encoded data, click Decode, and instantly get a nicely formatted JSON output you can inspect, debug, or reuse in your code.
A Base64 to JSON converter is a small utility that:
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding often used to safely transport data through channels that only accept text (like HTTP headers, HTML, emails, or certain logs). JSON is a structured text format used to represent objects, arrays, and key-value data.
When your JSON is wrapped in Base64 (for example, inside a token, webhook payload, or configuration string), this tool helps you quickly:
Use the tool directly in your browser—no signup, no installation.
A–Z, a–z, 0–9, +, /, _, -, and = for padding).If the Base64 content is not valid JSON (for example, it decodes to plain text or binary), the JSON output may be empty or show an error. In that case, you can use a generic Base64 text decoder instead (see related tools below).
Many APIs and webhooks use Base64-encoded JSON for:
payload, data, content)You can paste the encoded value here to:
Token-based systems sometimes embed JSON inside Base64-encoded segments. With this tool, you can:
(For full JWT introspection, you can also use specialized token/JWT tools available in CodersTool’s JSON and security sections.)
Configuration files, environment variables, and CI/CD pipelines sometimes store JSON as Base64 strings for convenience or safety:
Converting Base64 to JSON lets you:
Logs often truncate or escape JSON, making them hard to read. Some systems log JSON as Base64 instead. With this tool you can:
This online converter is designed for:
If you ever see a suspiciously long Base64 string and you know it should contain JSON, this tool is for you.
Base64 is generic—it can encode anything: text, images, binary files, or JSON. If decoding fails or the result looks like gibberish, the original data may not be JSON. In those cases:
Some systems use URL-safe Base64, replacing + and / with - and _, and sometimes omitting padding (=). If decoding fails:
= or ==) so the length is a multiple of 4.Once you convert Base64 to JSON, it’s good practice to:
You can do this with other JSON tools on Coderstool (see below).
After decoding, you can send the JSON output to other tools in the CodersTool ecosystem:
This makes it easy to go from:
Base64 string → JSON → formatted, validated, and testable data
all without leaving CodersTool.
If your data isn’t JSON, or you need the reverse conversion, explore these tools as well:
Use Base64 to JSON whenever your encoded string is expected to contain JSON, and switch to the other format-specific tools when you’re working with different data types.
No. You just need to paste the Base64 string and click Decode. The tool handles the decoding and JSON parsing behind the scenes.
If the decoded result isn’t valid JSON, you may see an error or an empty JSON output. In that case, use the Base64 Text Decoder to inspect the raw text and confirm what type of data you’re dealing with.
The converter runs entirely in your browser using client-side logic. However, you should always follow your organization’s security policies—avoid pasting highly sensitive information (like production secrets) into any online tool unless you’re sure it’s allowed.
Yes. You can copy the JSON output, turn it into a string, and then use CodersTool’s Base64 Encoder to convert it back into a Base64 string for transport or storage.
You can now paste this content into Surfer SEO’s Content Editor for your chosen target keyword (e.g. “base64 to json”) and fine-tune word count and semantic phrases while keeping the structure and intent of the page intact.
Simplicity is the soul of efficiency.
