Frequently asked questions

Is this converter free?
Yes, completely free. There is no cost, no account required, and no usage limits. It runs entirely in your browser.
Is my data uploaded to a server?
No. All conversion logic runs locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your data is never sent to any server, logged, or stored anywhere outside your own device.
Why does CSV conversion fail for some JSON?
CSV is a flat tabular format — it can only represent an array of flat objects where each object has the same set of keys. Nested objects, arrays-of-arrays, and single root objects cannot be expressed as CSV rows. If your data has a shape that cannot fit in a table, the converter will explain this with an error message. Converting to JSON or YAML always works regardless of the data shape.
What YAML version and library does this use?
The converter uses js-yaml v4, the most widely adopted JavaScript YAML library (used by Webpack, ESLint, and many other tools). It parses and emits YAML 1.2 compatible output.
