JSON to CSV Converter
Turn a JSON array of objects into CSV with proper headers and escaping — copy or download.
Convert JSON to CSV
The JSON to CSV converter turns a JSON array of objects into a clean CSV file with a header row and proper escaping. Paste your JSON and copy or download the CSV — ready to open in Excel, Google Sheets, or import into a database. It runs entirely in your browser, keeping your data private.
How it works
The converter scans every object in your array to build a complete set of column headers, then writes one CSV row per object. Values that contain commas, quotes, or line breaks are automatically wrapped in quotes and escaped, so your CSV stays valid and opens correctly in spreadsheet software.
How to use it
- Paste a JSON array of objects.
- The CSV is generated instantly with headers.
- Copy it or download it as a .csv file.

| Opening API data in Excel or Sheets |
| Importing records into a database |
| Sharing data with non-technical colleagues |
| Analyzing JSON output in a spreadsheet |
Handling mixed and nested data
If your objects don't all share the same keys, the converter collects every key across the array and leaves cells blank where an object lacks one — so the CSV stays rectangular. Nested objects and arrays are serialized as JSON text within their cell, which keeps the data intact even when the structure isn't perfectly flat.
Tips
- Make sure your JSON is an array of objects for best results.
- Flatten deeply nested data first if you want every field in its own column.
- Open the downloaded CSV in a spreadsheet to verify the columns.
Private and free
Conversion runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded. The tool is completely free with no sign-up.
Frequently asked questions
What JSON format does it need?
A JSON array of objects works best. Each object becomes a row and its keys become columns.
Does it escape commas and quotes?
Yes. Values with commas, quotes, or line breaks are wrapped in quotes and escaped so the CSV stays valid.
What about nested objects?
Nested objects and arrays are serialized as JSON text within their cell. Flatten first if you want separate columns.
Is my data private?
Yes. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
