What is a .SPS file?

The most common data format on the web.

An SPS file is an SPSS syntax script, a plain text file containing IBM SPSS Statistics commands for statistical analysis and data manipulation. Open and run it in IBM SPSS Statistics (File > Open > Syntax). To just read the code, any text editor works. You need SPSS (paid) to execute the commands.

Frequently asked questions

Is my .SPS file uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is opened directly from the copy you pick.

My .SPS file is invalid. Can you fix it?

We show the exact line and column of the first error. For common problems like comments, trailing commas, single quotes or Python-style True/False/None, click Try to repair and download the fixed file.

How large can the file be?

Up to 50 MB. The tree only builds the branches you open, so even multi-megabyte files stay responsive.

What is JSONPath?

A path like $.orders[3].customer.email that points to one value inside the data. Click any node to see its path and copy it for code, jq or your API docs.

Can I see my data as a table?

Yes. Any array of objects can be shown in the Table view and downloaded as CSV.
