Understand the formats

JSON

JSON represents objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans and null. Property names use double quotes; comments are not part of standard JSON.

Format JSON for inspection, flatten suitable records into a CSV table, or combine JSONL records into a JSON array.

JavaScript cannot represent every large integer exactly. CSV has no universal type system, so a JSON-to-CSV round trip can change types or nested structure. Keep the source data.

When is this useful?

Remove unnecessary whitespace from valid JSON for transfer. This does not compress images or remove records.

Examples illustrate the workflow; actual size, support and recognition depend on the source and settings.
