Frequently Asked Questions

How does this tool handle nested JSON objects?
By default, the tool flattens nested objects into dot-notation column names (for example, a nested field {"user": {"email": "..."}} becomes the column 'user.email'). This preserves all data structure when importing into Excel or Google Sheets.
Does this tool upload my JSON data to a server?
No. All parsing and CSV conversion happen 100% in your local browser memory using JavaScript. No payload is ever sent over the internet or logged.
What happens if some objects have different keys than others?
The converter analyzes every record in the array and compiles a master list of all unique columns. Any record that lacks a specific key is automatically padded with an empty cell, ensuring all columns align properly.
Why would I choose a semicolon delimiter instead of a comma?
In many European versions of Microsoft Excel, a semicolon is used as the standard list separator because commas represent decimal marks. Choosing semicolon allows one-click opening in European Excel without text-import wizard hassles.
