How to use it

  1. Upload the source file.
  2. If the workbook contains multiple sheets, choose the sheet to convert.
  3. Run the conversion to JSON.
  4. Download the result.

Supported input and notes

Accepts .xlsx and .xls workbooks. Choose a worksheet if the file has multiple sheets; only that sheet is converted. The first row supplies JSON property names, and each subsequent row becomes an object in an array. Empty cells are kept as empty values (typically empty strings); check the JSON before using it in another system.

When it is useful

Useful when preparing records from one Excel worksheet for an API, a web application, or a script that expects a JSON array of objects.

The First Row Becomes Field Names

The first row of the selected worksheet is used as the JSON field names. Rows below it become records using those fields.

How Rows and Columns Map

Excel Columns

Header cells from the first row become JSON field names.

Excel Rows

Each later row becomes one JSON record in the output array.

Blank Cells

A blank cell keeps its field in the record and is represented with an empty value, helping the output retain a consistent column structure.

Data Starts on Row Two

The first row is used for field names and is not included as an ordinary JSON record.

Use clear column names in row one: Labels such as Product, Price, and Stock make the resulting JSON easier to understand.

Selected Worksheet Only

If the workbook has several worksheets, choose one. The tool does not combine all sheets into one JSON file.
