Frequently Asked Questions
Does this execute SQL?
No. This page only reformats text and does not run queries.
Can I minify SQL for embedding?
Yes. Use Minify SQL to collapse whitespace into a compact query string.
Is minification done server-side?
No. SQL transformations run client-side in your browser.
Example input/output
Input:
SELECT id, name FROM users WHERE active = 1
Output: SELECT id,name FROM users WHERE active=1
How it works
This tool strips SQL comments (-- line and /* block */ style), collapses whitespace sequences to single spaces, and trims the result. Processing runs in your browser.
Common use cases
- Minify SQL queries for compact inline embedding in code
- Reduce SQL statement length before logging or storing
- Strip comments from SQL before deploying to production
