CSV ⇄ JSON Converter

Transform CSV or TSV data into a JSON array of objects (using the header row for keys) or flatten a JSON array back into CSV. The delimiter is auto-detected — commas, semicolons, or tabs — and quoted fields with embedded commas and newlines are handled correctly by the battle-tested Papa Parse engine.

Frequently asked questions

How are commas inside values handled?
Correctly: CSV wraps such fields in double quotes, and the parser honors quoting and escaping per RFC 4180 — including embedded newlines.
Can I convert an Excel file?
Save or copy the sheet as CSV first (File → Save As → CSV in Excel), then paste it here. Direct .xlsx parsing isn't supported.
