Delimiter:
Paste CSV or JSON above.
📖 Format Notes

Input must be array of objects. Keys from first object become CSV headers.
Quoted fields
Fields containing the delimiter must be wrapped in double quotes.

CSV vs JSON

CSV is the universal format for tabular data — spreadsheets, database exports, and data analysis tools all support it. JSON is the standard for web APIs and NoSQL databases. Converting between them is a daily task for data engineers, backend developers, and anyone working with APIs or database exports.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fields containing the delimiter must be wrapped in double quotes: "Smith, John". Fields containing double quotes must double them: "He said ""hello""". This tool handles both automatically.
Direct conversion of nested JSON to CSV is not possible since CSV is flat. Nested values are converted to their JSON string in the CSV cell. For complex nested JSON, flatten the structure first.
This runs entirely in your browser. Files up to a few MB work fine. For very large datasets (100MB+) use command-line tools like jq, Python pandas, or csvkit.
