Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data safe?: Yes. Every conversion runs entirely inside your browser. No data is ever transmitted to a server. The tool works offline once loaded.
What is the maximum file size?: There is no hard limit. Files under 1 MB convert instantly. Files 1–10 MB show a progress indicator. Files over 10 MB prompt a warning and run in a background thread to keep the browser responsive.
Why does my CSV fail to parse?: Common causes are trailing commas, single-quoted strings, unquoted keys, or missing closing brackets. The converter auto-repairs many of these and tells you exactly what it changed.
Can I convert multiple files at once?: The tool handles one file at a time. For bulk conversion, consider the csvjson CLI or API.
