Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the JSON output look like?
- Each row becomes a JSON object, keyed by the header row. The result is an array of objects. Empty cells become null.
- Can I choose between array-of-arrays and array-of-objects?
- Yes. Choose your preferred output format in the options panel.
- Is the JSON pretty-printed or minified?
- Both options are available. Pretty-printed is easier to read; minified is smaller for API use.
- What about multiple sheets?
- Multi-sheet workbooks produce one JSON file per sheet, delivered in a ZIP archive.
- Are dates converted correctly?
- Excel dates are converted to ISO 8601 strings (e.g. '2024-01-15') in the JSON output.
