Convert JSON to Excel / Google Sheets

Convert JSON to CSV for Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. Flatten nested arrays to spreadsheet-ready CSV with automatic columns.

Export JSON data to a CSV spreadsheet compatible with Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. Nested JSON objects are automatically flattened using dot-notation column names so every field becomes its own column.

Convert JSON to a Spreadsheet in 3 Steps

  1. Paste your JSON array into the input panel
  2. The tool flattens nested objects automatically
  3. Download the CSV file — open it directly in Excel or Google Sheets

Opening the CSV in Excel

After downloading: File → Open → select the .csv file. Excel will auto-detect comma delimiters. For semicolon delimiters (European Excel), select the delimiter option in the import wizard.

In Google Sheets: File → Import → Upload → select the CSV file → Detect automatically → Import data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this convert JSON to .xlsx format directly?

The tool generates a .csv file, which opens natively in Excel and Google Sheets. For .xlsx format, open the CSV in Excel and save as XLSX.

How are nested JSON objects handled?

Nested objects are flattened using dot-notation. For example, {"user": {"name": "Alice"}} becomes a column named user.name.

What if my JSON array has inconsistent keys?

Missing keys for specific rows become empty cells in the CSV. The header row includes all unique keys found across all objects in the array.
