How to Convert JSON to TSV
Turn structured JSON data into a tab-separated table in three simple steps.

Flatten Nested JSON into Excel-Ready TSV
JSON stores structured data with objects, arrays, keys, numbers, strings, booleans, and null values. TSV represents table data using tabs between columns and line breaks between rows, making it useful for spreadsheets, databases, analytics tools, scripts, and data imports.
This JSON to TSV converter works entirely in your browser. Your content is not uploaded to the server. It gathers all available object keys, creates a consistent header row, escapes tabs and line breaks, and produces clean tab-separated output.

Frequently Asked Questions
Helpful answers about JSON files and TSV conversion.
What JSON structure works best?
An array of objects works best because each object becomes one TSV row. A single object is also supported and becomes one row.
Is this JSON to TSV converter free?
Yes. You can paste, upload, convert, copy, and download without creating an account or paying a fee.
How are nested JSON objects handled?
When flattening is enabled, nested keys use dot notation. For example, `user.name` becomes a TSV column. Arrays are stored as compact JSON text.
Is my JSON uploaded to the server?
No. Parsing, flattening, conversion, preview, and download generation all happen locally in your browser.
Can I open the TSV in Excel?
Yes. Enable the Excel UTF-8 BOM option if your data contains international characters and Excel does not detect UTF-8 automatically.
How are tabs and line breaks handled?
Tabs, carriage returns, and line breaks inside values are replaced with spaces so every TSV record stays on one clean row.
