JSON to Excel Converter
Turn JSON into a real Excel spreadsheet with this free JSON to Excel converter. Paste or upload, flatten nested keys, edit the grid, then download .xlsx.
How to convert JSON to Excel
Paste or upload your JSON
Paste JSON straight into the editor, or click Upload .json to load a file. Everything is read on your device, so nothing leaves your browser.
Convert to a table
Click Convert to table. If the JSON has a syntax error, the editor marks the exact line in red so you can fix it fast, then convert again.
Edit the data if you need to
Click any cell to change it. Right-click a column letter or row number to insert, move, or delete. Keep the flatten option on to split nested keys into columns.
Download the .xlsx
Click Download .xlsx to save a real Excel workbook. Prefer plain text? The .csv download is there too.
Why convert JSON to Excel?
JSON is how most APIs and apps pass data around. It is easy for code to read, but hard for a person to scan. A spreadsheet is the opposite. Rows and columns are how most people actually work with data, and it is the format your teammates in sales, finance, or support already know.
That gap is the reason to convert. You pull a response from an API, export records from a database, or grab a config file, and you need it in a shape someone can sort, filter, and chart. This JSON to Excel converter turns an array of records into a clean table. Nested objects and arrays are flattened into dot-notation columns like team.name or skills.0, so deep data still lands in neat columns instead of one messy blob.
It all runs in your browser. Your JSON is never uploaded, which matters when the data has customer records or API keys in it. Paste it in, fix any line the editor flags in red, tidy the grid, and download a real .xlsx you can open in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.
What this JSON to Excel converter gives you
Paste or upload JSON
Drop in a .json file or paste the text right into the editor. Both work the same way, all on your device.
Flattens nested data
Nested objects and arrays are split into dot-notation columns like address.city or tags.0, so deep JSON still fits a table. Turn it off with one click.
Shows JSON errors by line
The editor has line numbers and highlights the exact line of a syntax error in red, so you fix broken JSON in seconds.
Editable grid before export
Rename a header, fix a value, or add and remove rows and columns before you download. What you see is what you get.
Real .xlsx and .csv output
Download a genuine Excel workbook that opens cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets, and Numbers, or grab a plain .csv instead.

JSON to Excel Converter FAQ
How do I convert JSON to Excel?
Open the JSON to Excel converter, paste your JSON or upload a .json file, and click Convert to table. Your data shows up in an editable grid. Fix anything you need to, then click Download .xlsx to save a real Excel workbook. It all happens in your browser.
Can Excel open a JSON file directly?
Newer versions of Excel can import JSON through Power Query, but it takes several steps and struggles with deeply nested data. This converter is faster for a quick job. It flattens nested keys into columns for you and hands back a ready .xlsx in a couple of clicks.
How do I convert a nested JSON to Excel?
Just paste the nested JSON and keep the Flatten nested keys option on. Nested objects and arrays become dot-notation columns, so team.name and skills.0 each get their own column. Turn the option off if you would rather keep nested values as raw JSON text in a single cell.
Is this JSON to Excel converter free?
Yes. It is free with no account, no watermark, and no limit on how much you convert. There are no paid tiers and no signup wall. You can use it as often as you like.
What JSON structure works best for Excel?
An array of flat objects that share the same keys converts most cleanly, since each object becomes a row and each key a column. Arrays of arrays and single objects work too. Deeply nested data is fine because the tool flattens it into columns automatically.
Does converting JSON to Excel upload my data?
No. Everything runs inside your browser on your own device. The JSON is never sent to a server, so private data like customer records or API keys stays with you. That also means it keeps working even if your connection drops after the page loads.
