JSON to Spreadsheet

JSON to spreadsheet conversion maps an array of JSON objects onto table rows and columns: keys become column headers and values become cells, used for data export and Excel exchange.

Purpose

To export JSON data as Excel/CSV for non-technical users to view and edit, or to import JSON from spreadsheets.

Mechanism

Each object in the array becomes a row, the union of all keys becomes the headers, and values fill the matching columns. Nested objects must be flattened or stringified as JSON. Dates and numbers are formatted by type.

Use cases

  • Exporting API data to Excel
  • Report generation
  • Data review
