fieldtrip helps you find any piece of information across multiple data formats. It works with many types of schemas like AsyncAPI, Avro, JSON Schema, OpenAPI, and Protobuf. You can search every field within these formats without needing technical skills.
This tool lets you explore complex data structures simply and fast. It works well even if you do not know how the underlying data is built.
- Search through different schema formats in one place.
- Works smoothly on Windows computers.
- Displays results clearly for easy reading.
- Supports common data schemas like AsyncAPI, Avro, JSON Schema, OpenAPI, and Protobuf.
- Does not require internet access after download.

Check the releases page regularly to download new versions. Updates may include bug fixes, new features, or support for more schema types.
For help or questions, use the GitHub Issues section on the repository page. Describe the problem clearly and include any error messages you see.
fieldtrip scans the structure of your data files. It reads every field name, no matter how deep in the schema. This approach helps find what other tools might miss.
It handles several data formats used by developers for APIs and data validation. The app does not need programming knowledge to operate, as all functions use simple menus and buttons.
- AsyncAPI: for event-driven APIs.
- Avro: used in big data.
- JSON Schema: describes JSON data.
- OpenAPI: documents REST APIs.
- Protobuf: stores structured data efficiently.
-
Use quotation marks around a phrase to find exact matches.
-
Combine terms with AND/OR to narrow or widen your search.
-
Save frequent searches as presets for quick reuse.
-
If you want to explore data visually, try the "Tree View" mode in the app.
