How it works

How to use the CSV to JSON

  1. Paste or open CSV

    Paste your CSV, drop a file onto the editor, or load the sample.

  2. Adjust the options

    Numbers and booleans are detected automatically, and the result is pretty-printed with your chosen indentation.

  3. Copy or download the JSON

    The output updates as you type. Invalid input is highlighted with the exact line and column.

About CSV and JSON

CSV (comma-separated values) is the lingua franca of spreadsheets and data exports: one record per line, fields separated by commas, quoted when needed (RFC 4180).

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is the standard format for web APIs and configuration: objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans and null.

How the conversion works

Numbers and booleans are detected automatically, and the result is pretty-printed with your chosen indentation. Conversion happens entirely in your browser, so even sensitive data never leaves your device.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is CSV to JSON conversion lossless?

The data is preserved. Formatting details that JSON cannot represent (such as comments or attribute-versus-element choices) may change.

Can I convert JSON back to CSV?

Yes — press Swap to reverse the direction, or open the JSON to CSV converter.

Is my data uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser — nothing you paste or open is sent to a server, logged or stored. The tool keeps working offline once the page has loaded.
