How to prettify the json text in the Excel cell? - json

Question

In the excel file, there are a lot of json texts like below
{"component":"{{$labels.component}}","container":"{{$labels.container}}","daemonset":"{{$labels.daemonset}}","directory":"{{$labels.directory}}","figure":"{{$value}}","instance":"{{$labels.instance}}","job":"{{$labels.job}}","name":"{{$labels.name}}","namespace":"{{$labels.namespace}}","pod":"{{$labels.pod}}","reason":"{{$labels.reason}}"}
I want to prettify the json text like this
{
"component": "{{$labels.component}}",
"container": "{{$labels.container}}",
"daemonset": "{{$labels.daemonset}}",
"directory": "{{$labels.directory}}",
"figure": "{{$value}}",
"instance": "{{$labels.instance}}",
"job": "{{$labels.job}}",
"name": "{{$labels.name}}",
"namespace": "{{$labels.namespace}}",
"pod": "{{$labels.pod}}",
"reason": "{{$labels.reason}}"
}
Is there any way to do this for any cells in my excel file?
Thanks!

If you have Excel 365 current channel then you can use this formula - where your json is in cell A1
=LET(json,A1,
r,SUBSTITUTE(json,",","," & CHAR(10)),
"{" & CHAR(10) & MID(r,3,LEN( r)-3) & CHAR(10) & "}")
First it replaces the comma by a comma plus a linebreak char(10). Then it handles the first and last linebreak.
