Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between CSV and JSON formats?

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple tabular format where each line represents a row and values are separated by commas. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a structured data format that uses key-value pairs and supports nested data structures. CSV is better for spreadsheet data, while JSON is ideal for hierarchical data and APIs.

What CSV delimiters are supported?

Our converter supports multiple delimiters: comma (,), semicolon (;), tab, pipe (|), and colon (:). You can select the appropriate delimiter based on your CSV file format. The tool automatically handles quoted values containing delimiter characters.

How are nested JSON objects converted to CSV?

Nested JSON objects are flattened using dot notation. For example, {"user": {"name": "John", "age": 30}} becomes "user.name" and "user.age" columns in CSV. Arrays are converted to string representations by default, but you can customize this behavior.

What is the maximum file size I can convert?

You can upload files up to 10MB directly. For larger files, we recommend pasting the data directly into the input field or splitting the file into smaller chunks. The converter handles files efficiently in the browser without uploading to servers.

How are data types preserved during conversion?

Our converter automatically detects and preserves data types: numbers remain as numbers, booleans (true/false) remain as booleans, and strings remain as strings. Empty values become null in JSON. You can enable/disable trimming of spaces from values as needed.

Can I convert CSV files without headers?

Yes, you can uncheck "First row contains headers" option. The converter will generate column names like "column_1", "column_2", etc. You can also manually add headers to your CSV or edit them after conversion in the JSON output.

Is my data secure during conversion?

Yes! All conversions happen entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to our servers, ensuring complete privacy. Your files and data never leave your computer, making it safe for sensitive information.
