About this json to csv converter

CSV exports are everywhere but most online converters miss the basics: quoting strings that contain commas, escaping double quotes inside fields, and using a stable column order across rows. The result is broken downloads that open badly in Excel.

This converter handles the standard cases correctly. Input must be a JSON array of objects — the converter takes the union of all keys across all objects as the column order, then writes each row with proper quoting. Strings containing commas or quotes are wrapped in double quotes; internal quotes are escaped by doubling them. The result opens cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets and any CSV-aware tool.

For nested objects or arrays inside object values, the converter stringifies them — which is rarely what you want. If your JSON has nesting, flatten it first (e.g., use object keys like address_street, address_city instead of address.street) before converting.

How to use it

  1. Paste a JSON array of objects in the input field.
  2. Click Convert.
  3. Read the CSV output and click Download CSV to save a file.

Tips & notes

  • If your JSON has nested objects, flatten them first or only include the fields you care about. Nested objects export as JSON strings inside CSV cells.
  • For very large datasets (10,000+ rows), the conversion can be slow in the browser. Server-side tools are faster for big jobs.
  • For Excel users, save the CSV with UTF-8 encoding (the calculator does this) to preserve special characters.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my CSV look broken in Excel?

Usually because of character encoding (Excel sometimes assumes Windows-1252 instead of UTF-8) or because nested data was stringified into a single cell. The calculator outputs UTF-8, which Excel handles correctly.

What happens to nested objects?

They get JSON-stringified into a single CSV cell. For useful nested-to-tabular conversion, flatten the structure in your source JSON first.

Is there a row limit?

No hard limit, but the browser does the conversion in memory. Tens of thousands of rows work fine; millions may be slow or run out of memory.
