Handling Nested Objects and Arrays

How complex JSON structures are flattened for CSV export

Nested Objects

Nested objects are flattened with dot notation for column names:

address.street, address.city, address.zipcode

Arrays in Objects

Array values are converted to comma-separated strings:

"JavaScript,Python,React"

Empty Values

Null and undefined values are converted to empty strings in the CSV output.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I convert a single JSON object to CSV?

The converter expects a JSON array. For single objects, wrap them in an array: ["your": "object"]

How are special characters handled in CSV output?

Special characters like commas and quotes are properly escaped and wrapped in quotes to ensure valid CSV format.

What happens if objects have different properties?

All unique properties from all objects become CSV columns. Missing properties result in empty cells.

Can I customize the CSV delimiter?

The converter uses standard comma delimiters. For custom delimiters, you can manually modify the output.
