About CSV to JSON Converter

This free CSV to JSON converter transforms tabular CSV data into a JSON array of objects, where each row becomes a JSON object and the header row provides the keys. All parsing is done in your browser using JavaScript — your data is never sent to a server.

Common use cases include importing spreadsheet exports into JavaScript applications, converting database exports for use in REST APIs, and preparing data for MongoDB or Firebase ingestion.
