What is JSON to CSV Converter?

Convert JSON arrays and nested objects into clean, spreadsheet-ready CSV files instantly — no upload, no account required. This browser-based tool flattens nested JSON structures, lets you choose your delimiter (comma, tab, semicolon), and handles arrays of objects as well as single objects. Developers use it to prepare API responses for stakeholder reports; analysts use it to bridge backend data exports with Excel or Google Sheets. Because everything runs locally in your browser, sensitive records never leave your machine. Download the result as a .csv file or copy it directly to your clipboard in seconds.

How to Use

  1. 1

    Paste Your JSON

    Paste your JSON array or object into the input panel. You can also drag-and-drop a .json or .jsonl file directly onto the editor, or fetch JSON from a remote URL.

  2. 2

    Configure Options

    Choose your delimiter (comma, semicolon, tab, or pipe), toggle header row inclusion, enable force-quoting, and decide how nested objects and arrays should be handled.

  3. 3

    Click Convert

    Press "Convert to CSV". The tool parses and transforms your JSON entirely in the browser — no data is sent to any server.

  4. 4

    Download or Copy

    Click "Download CSV" to save the file, or "Copy" to paste directly into Excel, Google Sheets, Tableau, or any text editor.

Common Use Cases

Excel & Google Sheets

Excel and Sheets cannot natively open JSON files. Convert your API response or data export to CSV first, then import it directly as a structured spreadsheet.

BI Tools & Dashboards

Tableau, Power BI, and Looker all accept CSV as a primary data source. Transform your JSON data feeds into CSV before loading them into your dashboard.

Database Imports

MySQL LOAD DATA INFILE, PostgreSQL COPY, and most ETL pipelines expect CSV. Use this tool to prepare JSON exports from APIs or NoSQL databases for bulk import.

Legacy System Integration

Older enterprise systems often only support flat file formats. Convert JSON payloads from modern APIs into CSV so they can be processed by legacy software.

Conversion Examples

Array of Objects → Standard CSV

The most common case: a JSON array where each object becomes a row.

Input JSON

[
    {"id": 1, "name": "Alice", "role": "Engineer"},
    {"id": 2, "name": "Bob",   "role": "Designer"},
    {"id": 3, "name": "Carol", "role": "Manager"}
]

Output CSV

id,name,role
1,Alice,Engineer
2,Bob,Designer
3,Carol,Manager

Nested Object → Flattened CSV

Nested objects are flattened using dot-notation keys.

Input JSON

[
    {"id": 1, "name": "Alice", "address": {"city": "London", "zip": "EC1A"}},
    {"id": 2, "name": "Bob",   "address": {"city": "Paris",  "zip": "75001"}}
]

Output CSV

id,name,address.city,address.zip
1,Alice,London,EC1A
2,Bob,Paris,75001

Single JSON Object → One-Row CSV

A single object produces a CSV with one header row and one data row.

Input JSON

{"product": "Widget", "price": 9.99, "inStock": true}

Output CSV

product,price,inStock
Widget,9.99,true
