JSON to CSV Converter Online

Convert JSON arrays to CSV files or transform CSV data into JSON objects. Our tool handles nested objects by flattening them with dot notation, making it easy to work with complex data structures in spreadsheet applications.

Key Features

Automatically flattens nested JSON objects
Handles arrays within objects
Unflattens dot-notation keys back to nested objects
Choose between array or object output format
Preserves data types when converting CSV to JSON

How It Works

1

Data Input & Parsing

Paste your JSON array or object into the input field. The tool automatically detects the structure and locates the relevant array data, even if it's nested inside a wrapper object.

2

Flattening Engine

Nested objects are recursively flattened using dot-notation (e.g., 'user.address.zip'). This transforms hierarchical data into a tabular format compatible with spreadsheets.

3

CSV Generation

The normalized data is processed and converted into a standard CSV format, ensuring proper handling of delimiters, line breaks, and special characters.

Common Use Cases

Data Migration & ETL

Shift data from NoSQL databases or modern APIs (JSON) into legacy systems or SQL databases that require CSV imports.

Excel & Spreadsheet Analysis

Export structured API data into Excel or Google Sheets for advanced filtering, pivot tables, and statistical analysis.

Log Transformation

Convert structured application logs into a flat format to identify trends or debug issues more efficiently.

100% Private & Secure

All processing happens directly in your browser. Your data never leaves your device — we don't upload, store, or have access to any of your content.

Instant & Offline-Ready

No server roundtrips means instant results. Once this page is loaded, the tool works even without an internet connection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data secure and private?

Yes. Unlike other online converters, DataFormatHub processes all data entirely within your browser. No data is sent to our servers, ensuring 100% privacy for sensitive business or personal files.

How are nested JSON objects handled?

Our converter uses a recursive flattening algorithm. Nested keys are joined by dots (e.g., 'profile.settings.theme'), allowing you to view complex hierarchies as clear columns in a CSV.

Can I convert large files?

Since the processing is done in your browser, the limit depends on your device's memory. Most modern browsers can easily handle JSON files up to 50MB-100MB instantly.
