=== Auto Formatting
Console allows you to auto format messy requests. To do so, position the cursor on the request you would like to format
and select Auto Indent from the action menu:
.Auto Indent a request
image::images/auto_format_before.png["Auto format before",width=500,align="center"]
Console will adjust the JSON body of the request and it will now look like this:
.A formatted request
image::images/auto_format_after.png["Auto format after",width=500,align="center"]
If you select Auto Indent on a request that is already perfectly formatted, Console will collapse the
request body to a single line per document. This is very handy when working with Elasticsearch's bulk APIs:
.One doc per line
