How to use it

  1. Paste a JSON array of objects into the input panel.

Use cases

  • Seeding a development or test database from JSON fixtures
  • Importing JSON API responses into a relational table
  • Migrating JSON data exports to a SQL database
  • Generating sample data INSERT statements for documentation

Limitations

  • Deeply nested objects and arrays are serialized as JSON text strings, not expanded into columns.
  • The tool does not generate CREATE TABLE statements; column types must be defined separately.
  • Very large JSON arrays may be slow on older devices.
Questions & answers

Frequently asked

Which databases are supported?

The output uses standard SQL INSERT syntax compatible with MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MariaDB, and SQL Server. String values are quoted with single quotes and single quotes inside values are escaped.

How are null and boolean values handled?

JSON null becomes SQL NULL. Boolean true/false becomes 1/0 for broad compatibility, or TRUE/FALSE if your database supports it.

Is my JSON data uploaded to a server?

Your file or text is processed in your browser and is not uploaded.

What if rows have different keys?

All unique keys across all objects are gathered as columns. Rows missing a key produce NULL for that column.
