Frequently Asked Questions
The converter expects a JSON array of objects, like [{"name": "Alice", "age": 30}, {"name": "Bob", "age": 25}]. Each object becomes one CSV row.
Nested objects are flattened. A nested property like {"address": {"city": "NYC"}} becomes a column named 'address.city' in the CSV output.
The converter collects all unique keys across all objects to build the header row. Objects missing a key get an empty cell in that column.
Array values are serialized as JSON strings in the CSV cell. For example, [1, 2, 3] becomes the text '[1,2,3]' in the output.
The converter expects an array. If your JSON is a single object, it will be treated as a one-row table with the object's keys as headers.
Yes. Boolean values become 'true' or 'false' strings, and null values become empty cells in the CSV output.
The output uses standard comma delimiters. If you need a different delimiter like semicolons or tabs, try the JSON to TSV converter.
Values containing commas, double quotes, or newlines are automatically wrapped in double quotes per the CSV standard. Internal quotes are escaped by doubling them.
No hard limit. The converter processes your entire JSON array. Performance depends on your device's memory for very large datasets.
