Background Information

JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) pronounced as "Jason" is the de facto standard for data interchange on the web these days. It is a simple format that is easier to comprehend than XML. It also has less size than XML because of no closing tags. Interacting with JSON from JavaScript is extremely seamless.

CSV is an old & very popular format for storing tabular data. It has been used in the desktop as well as mainframe. It is a simple & compact format that works really well for tabular data and so is still in use today.

Cleanse Boolean Values

If selected, Boolean values in Sentence & Capital cases such as True, False, TRUE & FALSE are transformed to their lowercase versions before conversion to CSV. This makes sure that the JSON is valid by cleansing the boolean values. According to the JSON specification, such boolean values are invalid and only lowercase true/false are valid.

Use this if your input JSON has such boolean values in Sentence or Capital casing. However, this will also transform such words inside JSON strings (i.e inside double quotes)

Handle Multiple Jsons

If selected, multiple JSONs in the input are handled. Each Valid JSON must completely exist in one line.
