About JSON to CSV Converter

JSON to CSV Converter is a free online tool that transforms JSON arrays into CSV (Comma Separated Values) format. It handles complex JSON structures including nested objects (flattened with dot notation like address.city), arrays within values, null values, and mixed data types. The tool supports multiple delimiters — comma, semicolon, tab, and pipe — making it compatible with different regional CSV standards and applications. Whether you need to export API response data to a spreadsheet, prepare data for database import, or share structured data with non-technical team members, this converter handles it all. Every conversion runs 100% in your browser — your JSON data never leaves your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert JSON to CSV?

Paste your JSON array of objects into the input field. The tool automatically extracts all keys as CSV column headers and converts each object into a CSV row. Click Copy or Download CSV to get the result. For nested objects, enable 'Flatten nested objects' to convert them to dot-notation columns like address.city.

Can I convert nested JSON to CSV?

Yes. Enable the 'Flatten nested objects' option (on by default) and the tool will convert nested properties to dot-notation columns. For example, {"address": {"city": "NYC"}} becomes a column header address.city with value NYC.

What JSON format does this tool accept?

The tool accepts a JSON array of objects, like [{"name":"John","age":30},{"name":"Jane","age":25}]. Each object in the array becomes one row in the CSV. The tool automatically collects all unique keys across all objects as column headers.

Can I change the CSV delimiter?

Yes. Choose from four delimiter options: Comma (default, standard CSV), Semicolon (common in European countries), Tab (TSV format), or Pipe. Select the delimiter that matches your target application or regional standard.

Is my JSON data safe with this converter?

Yes. This JSON to CSV converter runs 100% client-side in your browser. No data is ever uploaded to any server. Your JSON stays on your device, making it safe for converting sensitive or proprietary data.

How does the tool handle arrays inside JSON values?

Arrays within JSON values are joined with semicolons by default. For example, {"skills": ["JS", "Python"]} becomes JS;Python in the CSV output. This preserves all data while maintaining CSV compatibility.

Can I convert large JSON files to CSV?

Yes. The tool processes JSON locally in your browser and can handle files with thousands of rows. For very large files, use the Upload button to load a .json file directly instead of pasting.
