Questions & answers

Frequently asked

Does the output open correctly in Excel?

Yes. The file is generated as a valid Open XML .xlsx file using the same format Microsoft Excel writes. It opens without conversion warnings in Excel 2007 and later, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice Calc.

Are numbers stored as numbers or text?

Numbers in the JSON array are written as numeric cells so formulas and sorting work correctly in Excel. Strings, booleans, and null are written as their natural Excel types.

Is my JSON uploaded to a server?

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

What if different objects have different keys?

All unique keys from all objects are collected as column headers. Objects missing a key produce a blank cell in that column.
