How to Use CSV to JSON

1

Paste CSV data into input field or upload CSV file. CSV should have header row (first row contains column names).

2

Select delimiter (comma, semicolon, tab) if CSV uses non-standard delimiter. Tool detects comma by default.

3

Click 'Convert' to transform CSV to JSON array. Each CSV row becomes a JSON object with column names as keys. Copy or download JSON result.

Limitations & Constraints

CSV files with inconsistent delimiters or formatting may not convert correctly

Very large CSV files (>10MB) may process slowly depending on browser memory

CSV files with special characters or commas in values need proper quoting

Nested data structures in CSV may not convert to nested JSON correctly

CSV files with different row lengths may produce unexpected JSON structure

Troubleshooting

CSV to JSON conversion fails or shows error

Solution: Check CSV format - ensure consistent delimiter (comma, semicolon, tab). Verify CSV has header row. Check for unclosed quotes or special characters. Ensure CSV is properly formatted.

JSON structure doesn't match expected format

Solution: CSV converts to array of objects (one object per row). Verify CSV has header row for property names. Check delimiter setting matches CSV file. Review CSV structure before conversion.

Special characters or commas in CSV cause issues

Solution: CSV values with commas or special characters should be quoted. Ensure CSV uses proper quoting (double quotes). Check CSV formatting - values with commas need quotes around them.

Conversion is slow with large CSV files

Solution: Very large CSV files may take time. Close other browser tabs to free memory. Consider converting smaller sections, or use CSV processing tools for very large files.

Need different delimiter (semicolon, tab)

Solution: Select correct delimiter from settings (comma, semicolon, tab). Verify CSV file uses the selected delimiter. Check CSV file format - some regions use semicolons instead of commas.
