About This Calculator

This CSV to JSON converter parses CSV (respecting quoted fields and escaped quotes) and produces a pretty-printed JSON array.

If the first row contains headers, each later row becomes an object keyed by those headers. Disable the headers option to get objects keyed generically as col0, col1, and so on. Comma, semicolon, pipe, and tab delimiters are supported.

Parsing runs locally in your browser — your data never leaves your device.

Worked Examples

Example

[ { "name": "Alice", "age": "30" }, { "name": "Bob", "age": "25" } ]

Frequently Asked Questions

Are numeric values kept as strings?
Yes — cells are parsed as strings to avoid data loss (leading zeros, phone numbers, IDs). Use the JSON formatter or a typed converter if you need to coerce types.
Does it handle quoted commas inside fields?
Yes. Fields surrounded by double quotes can contain the delimiter, and doubled quotes inside are unescaped correctly.
