About CSV → JSON

Most APIs and modern apps consume JSON, not CSV. Converting CSV from spreadsheets, exports, or legacy databases into JSON is the first step of nearly every data-import script. This converter follows RFC 4180 (handles quoted fields, escaped quotes, and embedded commas).

Frequently asked questions

My first row isn't a header — what do I do?
This converter assumes the first row is headers. If yours isn't, prepend a header row like `col1,col2,col3` first, then convert.
Are dates auto-converted?
No — dates stay as strings. JSON has no native date type, so you keep them in ISO 8601 format ("2024-01-15") and parse them in your application code.
What about TSV (tab-separated)?
Replace tabs with commas first using a quick find-replace, then convert.
