CSV to JSON FAQs
Get answers to common questions about converting CSV to JSON
Simply paste or upload your CSV data in the browser and get an instant JSON preview—no Python, no installs, no sign-ups required. All processing runs locally on your device for speed and privacy. Click "Download JSON" to save the file or "Copy" to paste directly into your code. Visit CSV to JSON converter to get started.
Yes. All conversion happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your CSV data never leaves your device or gets uploaded to any server. This privacy-by-design approach ensures complete data security and GDPR compliance—your sensitive information stays 100% private.
The converter supports standard CSV with comma delimiters, as well as semicolon, tab, and pipe-separated files. Delimiter auto-detection is enabled by default, or you can manually select your preferred delimiter from the settings. Quoted fields (RFC 4180 standard) are automatically handled, including fields containing commas, line breaks, or quotes.
The first row of your CSV is treated as headers, which become the JSON object keys. Each subsequent row becomes a JSON object with these keys. For example, headers "name,age,city" convert each row into objects like {"name": "John", "age": "30", "city": "NYC"}. If your CSV has no headers, numeric indices are used instead.
Yes! The generated JSON follows standard format and can be directly used with REST APIs, GraphQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL JSON columns, and all modern databases. The output is properly structured as an array of objects, making it perfect for API payloads, database imports, and application configuration files.
File size is limited by your browser and device memory—typically 10-50 MB works smoothly, while larger files (50-100 MB+) depend on your hardware. For very large datasets, we recommend testing with a sample first or splitting the CSV into smaller parts before conversion.
