How do I convert JSON to TSV?

Paste your JSON into the converter on this page and pick TSV as the output. Conversion happens instantly in your browser — nothing is uploaded. You can also call the free API: POST /api/v1/convert with { from: "json", to: "tsv", data }.

Is the JSON to TSV converter free?

Yes. The on-page JSON-to-TSV converter is free and runs locally in your browser. The developer API is also free during beta, with a per-call paid tier for bulk and large payloads.

Convert JSON to TSV

Paste your JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) and convert it to Tab-Separated Values (TSV) in one click. Runs entirely in your browser — no upload, no signup.

Input (JSON)

[
  { "id": 1, "name": "Ada Lovelace", "role": "Engineer", "active": true },
  { "id": 2, "name": "Alan Turing", "role": "Researcher", "active": false }
]

Output (TSV)

Convert this via the API (curl)

curl -X POST "https://data.wrapper-agency.com/api/v1/convert" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"from":"json","to":"tsv","data":"[\n  { \"id\": 1, \"name\": \"Ada Lovelace\", \"role\": \"Engineer\", \"active\": true },\n  { \"id\": 2, \"name\": \"Alan Turing\", \"role\": \"Researcher\", \"active\": false }\n]"}'

Free conversion API — no key during beta. POST { from, to, data }, get back the converted string. All conversion runs server-side; nothing is stored.

JSON vs TSV

JSON

A lightweight, human-readable data-interchange format. The default for web APIs and config.

TSV

Like CSV but tab-delimited — friendlier when your data contains commas.

How to convert JSON to TSV

FormatForge parses your JSON into an in-memory data structure, then serializes it as TSV. Numbers, booleans, and null values are preserved, and delimited output is quoted per RFC 4180 so embedded commas, tabs, and newlines stay intact.

Example

JSON in

[
  { "id": 1, "name": "Ada Lovelace", "role": "Engineer", "active": true },
  { "id": 2, "name": "Alan Turing", "role": "Researcher", "active": false }
]

TSV out

id	name	role	active
1	Ada Lovelace	Engineer	true
2	Alan Turing	Researcher	false

Convert JSON to TSV in code

Send the conversion to the free API and get the result back as a string:

curl -X POST "https://data.wrapper-agency.com/api/v1/convert" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"from":"json","to":"tsv","data":"...your JSON as a string..."}'

FAQ

Does converting JSON to TSV change my data?: No — the conversion is structural. Your values are preserved; only the serialization format changes.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?: The on-page converter runs locally in your browser. The API processes your payload server-side and stores nothing.
