A TOOL FOR A SPECIFIC JOB

CSV to JSON Converter

Convert a CSV table into an array of JSON objects.

Processed locally in your browser. Maximum 200,000 characters.

What this tool does

Turn a small CSV table into structured JSON while preserving cell values as strings.

How to use it

Paste CSV with a unique, nonempty header row and select Process. Quoted commas, quotes and newlines are supported. Inspect the output before using it in another system.

Privacy and limitations

Processing takes place in your browser. Avoid pasting sensitive data into a shared device. Results are not stored by this tool.

Example and expected JSON

For the CSV name,active followed by Ava,true, the output is an array containing {"name":"Ava","active":"true"}. Headers become object keys, each data row becomes an object, and cell values remain strings rather than being converted to numbers or booleans.

CSV quoting and table requirements

Provide a header row and at least one data row, with a unique nonempty header for every column. Quoted commas, doubled quotes and quoted newlines are supported; each data row must have the same number of columns as the header.

Review before using the converted data

The converter accepts at most 5,000 data rows and produces JSON without inferring types or validating the meaning of columns. Check the output for the receiving system’s expected field names and types before importing it; copy or download the result as JSON.

Questions about this tool

Are numbers and true/false values converted to JSON types?

No. Every CSV cell is kept as a string, so a cell containing 42 becomes "42" and a cell containing true becomes "true".

What causes a CSV row to be rejected?

A data row with a different number of cells than the header, malformed quoting, duplicate or empty headers, or a missing data row prevents conversion.
