What changes in the conversion
XLS is useful for legacy Excel readers. This tool creates an Excel 97-2003 values-only workbook with up to 256 columns per sheet.
The union of record keys becomes the first row of one worksheet. Numbers and booleans keep their types; missing and null values become blank cells. Nested objects and arrays become JSON text. String values are stored as text, without executing formulas. Numbers use JavaScript precision; store very large integers as strings.
Size limits and browser notes
- Accepts .json files up to 10 MB each.
- You can convert several files at once; they download together as one ZIP.
