Question 1

What JSON structures can be converted to CSV?

Accepted Answer

Our converter works best with JSON arrays of objects, where each object represents a row. Nested objects are flattened into columns. Simple arrays and complex nested structures are also supported with intelligent formatting.

Question 2

Can I choose a different delimiter?

Accepted Answer

Yes! While comma is the default delimiter, you can choose semicolon, tab, or other delimiters depending on your needs. This is useful for different regional CSV standards or specific application requirements.

Question 3

How are nested JSON objects handled in CSV?

Accepted Answer

Nested objects are flattened using dot notation. For example, a JSON object like {user: {name: 'John'}} becomes a CSV column named 'user.name'. This preserves all your data while maintaining CSV compatibility.

Question 4

Is the conversion reversible?

Accepted Answer

While you can convert CSV back to JSON, some data structure information may be lost in the conversion since CSV is a flat format. For best results, keep your original JSON files if you need to preserve complex nested structures.

Question 5

What's the maximum file size?

Accepted Answer

Anonymous users can convert files up to 10MB. This is sufficient for most use cases. For larger files or batch processing, please contact us about our enterprise solutions.
