JSON to CSV converter (and vice-versa)

[sfiedler0]

First of all, thank you so much for a great file converter that just works! Instantly bookmarked it.

I think it would be even greater if it supported the conversion of JSON to CSV (similar to https://www.convertcsv.com/json-to-csv.htm). This conversion can be important for people who want to process data from websites (commonly JSON) in some spreadsheet program (often CSV).

Converting from CSV to JSON is important too, as you may want, for example, to get your spreadsheet data from your website (but don't want to parse CSV).

I assume it would be good to have a vice-versa version as well right? CSV to JSON?

Actually true. Will update the issue title.

is json to csv supported?

i am seeing this error:
"Error converting file calligra.json: .csv is not a supported output format for documents." and also it gives me a "pandoc-api error" when i try to convert csv to any other format.

is this an issue from my side?

No, this isn't an issue on your side. The problem is that VERT.sh uses pandoc for document conversion, but pandoc is designed for rich text documents (but they still say it supports json and csv).
So Pandoc can't convert json to csv. And this is why I filed this issue.
