A beginner-friendly walkthrough for turning a JSON array into a spreadsheet-ready CSV: check the input, flatten nested objects, set the header row, choose a delimiter and verify the import in Excel or Google Sheets.
If a CSV data row has more cells than the header, the overflow value can vanish during conversion. Here is how to find the row and repair the CSV.
A 17-digit ID can pass validation and still come back with a different last digit. Learn the JavaScript precision limit behind it and how string IDs keep your digits intact.
A ZIP code that reads 02134 in your CSV can silently become 2134 once you convert to JSON. Here is why the site's CSV to JSON tool does that, how the Auto types setting controls it, and why a valid JSON file can still hide a lost leading zero.
