Frequently Asked Questions

Does this converter handle CSV files with commas inside quoted cells?

Yes. The parser strictly follows RFC 4180 rules, correctly parsing commas inside double-quoted text cells.

Can I convert tab-separated (TSV) or semicolon-separated files?

Yes! You can choose Comma, Tab, Semicolon, or Pipe (|) as the column delimiter.

How does it convert nested JSON objects into flat CSV?

Nested JSON objects are flattened using dot notation keys (e.g. "user.address.city") to ensure accurate tabular representation.
